Why?

In September 2003, Newtopia Magazine published my short story "Turn Signals." Click here for a read, if you're interested. The story also appears in my collection "Blind In One Eye."

Based on a dream I had one Sunday morning, "Turn Signals" has always been one of my favorites. I've always considered it a very visual tale, so decided to convert it to a short film. I would love to see it photographed and it would be fairly inexpensive to make.

True, it's a downer, but I still think it's beautiful. The women in the story are just destroyed by what's happened to them. But rather than follow the path to redemption usually offered up by such fatalistic tales, these ladies all rise against it. For better or worse.
