Autumn, Beautiful Autumn

Ah, the chilled yet beautiful touch of Autumn has come yet again! As I have always stated in the past, this is definitely my favorite season. It carries with it a somberness worthy of a writers attention and that is why I have depicted so many of my stories in this season. Though it is quite sobering that I have been very busy as of late and haven't had quite to notice and titillate all the subtle changes taking place, I'm definitely making time for my favorite holiday Halloween like I always do each year.
As I'm writing this, I'm almost one third of the way finished with my screenplay 'Infernal Covenant.' And, I must say, the direction it's taking is rather interesting. One aspect of writing I must comment on is this; it is absolutely essential that one enjoys their work. Once that concept is lost, it will have a detrimental effect on everything. For it is very surprising how many writers out there that are driven more by delusions of grandeur than they are a passion for their craft.
Another concept is the point of writing to please one's self first. I truly believe if you compromise your own interests in the pursuit of gaining a large audience, all you will truly achieve is disappointment. All the greats of the past wrote their own will first, whether or not they gained public approval was always a secondary priority. And with that in mind, I tend to ignore fads and follow my own proclivities. They always seem to procure my morbid imagination!
