I've often thought about writing a short novel or screenplay based on themes in music. After seeing Across the Universe last year I contemplated creating a similar story based on Weezer songs entitled "Only In Dreams." While many of the basics have never been fully developed, I've never closed the door on such a venture.
A friend of mine had a band in which several of his songs made up a story arc. I had originally planned to connect them via a short story and have a draft saved of the first "chapters" of what I refer to as Road of Regret This story combined my passion for bands like my friends, Johnny Cash and for the writing of Chuck Palahnuik and a few personal tidbits. I still think it is one of my finest works to date.
The next few posts will be a series of portions of this. I hope to get a bit of feedback and maybe some inspiration to help me see this project to a close.
