Update & The Cult of DONE

It's been a while so a quick update.

The Nuns With Guns script is looking good! :-) What an insane concept!! I'm sick of watching Australian movies playing it safe. Of listening to supposedly 'upcoming' directors paranoid about their first movie and how it must be 'perfect' or they'll never get another chance. Of films that had to be made' but didn't have to be watched. What happened to entertaining the audience instead of pandering to the bloody funding body?

I watched 'Blue Murder' last weekend and thought 'wow'. It's a great story, scary, involving, intense, a committed cast and crew, done on a tiny budget, on the run, and is basically 20 times the first Underbelly, more like 100 times the second. I've been watching Aussie movies consistently over the last few weeks and the sad thing is none of them have inspired me enough to actually write anything about them. (OK Suburban Mayhem was pretty good). Blue Murder is better than any of them and it's not even a movie!

OK glad that's off my chest.

Now for a new mantra I've tracked down... The Cult of Done Manifesto. Great stuff. I realise this is the manifesto I've been working to my whole life! There's a link on the right to more information an doptional posters, but this is the basic manifesto itself.

Enjoy :-)

The Cult of Done Manifesto

1. There are three states of being. Not knowing, action and completion.
2. Accept that everything is a draft. It helps to get it done.
3. There is no editing stage.
4. Pretending you know what you're doing is almost the same as knowing what you are doing, so just accept that you know what you're doing even if you don't and do it.
5. Banish procrastination. If you wait more than a week to get an idea done, abandon it.
6. The point of being done is not to finish but to get other things done.
7. Once you're done you can throw it away.
8. Laugh at perfection. It's boring and keeps you from being done.
9. People without dirty hands are wrong. Doing something makes you right.
10. Failure counts as done. So do mistakes.
11. Destruction is a variant of done.
12. If you have an idea and publish it on the internet, that counts as a ghost of done.
13. Done is the engine of more.
