About Jonathan
Just moved to the big bad city of Los Angeles and am going to try my hand at being awesome. In the meantime, I'll write screenplays, specs, novels and work on my webcomic that I've been trudging through for a bajillion years.

If It Ain’t Broke, Don’t Remake It
Posted on December 6, 2009 | View CommentsI’ve got a rather novel idea that I’d like to share with the world, something which I think everyone can agree with on some basic level. Something, which when I say it you’ll say “amen” under your breath. Ready for it? We don’t *need* remakes.... -
On NaNoWriMo
Posted on December 1, 2009 | View CommentsDudes (and Dudettes), I totally frickin’ did it! I wrote a 50,000 word novel. That’s about 93 pages using your standard Times New Roman font and the basic margins set up by Microsoft Word when you open a blank document. Seven more pages and I...
