With everything at my fingertips, the struggle seems to be "sharing the hot potatoe". Everyone I speak with about my film project gets so excited and wants to be involved in some way. It is up to me to create a place for them in which to become a participant...but the bottom line is that no one really has time to invest...unless their time is appreciated with a financial return. Can't blame 'em. I have to make a monetary living as well. I get that.
That is one of my personal motivators for creating this project. It is more than making a "Western" Web Film Series. It is a Banking System...of sorts.
This project is being kick-started via the Screenplay of an historical-based fiction novel, "for the killing's sake", Book I of my "Western" Trilogy. https://www.amazon.com/author/western-web-series-me.goodwin
There will be 22 Episodes per Series...and 3 Series means 66 Episodes! And that is really only the beginning. (Do you remember the beginnings of M*A*S*H???) At .99(cents) per view of each Episode on the Web...this is only the beginning as well. We will be offering "Western" related products for sale on our Online Store that include everything from a chair or table or a lamp on a film set to a particular hat on a Cowboy, or the hand-woven Saddle Blanket on your favorite character's horse.
All these products will generate a certain amount of profit...that will then become the revenue required to meet the definition of a Banking System. And when I refer to this Banking System, I am talking about a Royalties Program in which the projects' Participants are appreciated with a financial return for the their time invested.
As with anything that meets that "Trending Now" level, I am reminded of how we humans are often compared to sheep...that we are followers. Which may be garnished as a 'true-ism'. But the reality is that a 'first move' must be made to create a current of motion to flow within.
And that current is this Blog.
So...PLEASE...keep following me.
Baking a Western Web Film Series From Scratch

Day 1...at the drawing board!
So, I wake up from this amazing dream. I gotta write it down, right? Right! Write it down right now!!!! Only...I sleep up in the loft...a mattress, low ceilings, steep ladder. And usually, by the time my foot reaches the cold hardwood floor, getting to the bathroom takes priority. But ahhhhhh...what a way to start a day! Right? Right? Oh yeah...right! Write it down, now!!!! THE DREAM...THE DREAM!!!!
