Writing

I hate writing. I'm too tired to write, I've got too much energy to write, I'm too sober to write, I'm too hung-over to write, I need some inspiration to write... it basically writes itself anyway.

But I love telling stories.

The near empty page below will hopefully fill up with writings of my adventures... if not it will become a silent tomestone to yet another 'career' I half-started.

Here's a short film I made with Brendon Slattery back in 1997 (when the kilbott factory had two ts). If you look carefully you may also spot the handy work of Mark Genge and Brannon (Barney) Valmadre. This version has been transferred from Super-8 film and then compressed so the quality is nothing to write home about... even with compression it is a sizable download - 18.35 Mb. If you do decide to download it you will need the divx codec to watch it.
