Adventure
A Keeper and Giver of Moments
Life is procedural. So are films. So is filmmaking. Life is growth. The addition of time and chance and action and lessons. Life is small. And big. Fleeting and monumental. Fast and slow. Life is yesterday. Life is today. Life is tomorrow. Life is many things. Most of all, to me, life is all about the picture at the end. Moments and circumstances are pixels and puzzle pieces; only beautiful as a complete ensemble. That’s why we watch films. We get to see totality. A complete circle. In my creative journey, I am seeing a circle about to complete – my passion for storytelling through filmmaking is becoming a possibility. I first fell in love with films. Then I learned how to write thoughts. Then I learned how to write poems. Then I learned how to write songs. Then I learned how to tell stories. Then I learned how to take photographs. Then I learned how to communicate and work with a creative team. Then I learned how to paint. Then I learned how to write scripts. Then I realised that in all of this – I had learned how to make films. Life is procedural. So are films. So is the creation of a filmmaker.

The Taken Road
Tirah pulled in a harsh breath through her mask, back pressed against a ruined brick wall coated with soft black moss. The sky was darker than usual for this time of day, acid-green clouds bright with lightning drifting across the grey like a veiled threat. Gods-damned Gildeds, staining the sky with the foul pollution that spewed from their precious Domes!

Westlanders
The Ramshackles unfolded in front of them as they came over the hill. Only one of the towering skyscrapers, which climbed hundreds of feet into the air, maintained its original structure. The rest of them had bits chipped out of them, and a few looked as though their tops had been sheared clean off.

They were like the super-secret stalkers of all time, but in reality they were just secret service agents.

Operation Doomsday Diary
In 2025, 14 years ago, a solar flare caused an electromagnetic pulse that resulted in the death of my parents. They were driving when the event occurred. A person driving an electric vehicle lost control and hit them. Many people died that year. Some died of starvation, some died from lack of heat. Most industries shut down. It became the responsibility of smaller communities to harvest food and take care of livestock. It became illegal for any portion of a person’s property to just be grass. Any available space in the suburbs was turned into miniature farms. Times were strange back then. The internet stopped working in most locations. Cellphones and landlines weren’t back up for years. The postal service was in high demand. Gas was impossible to find. Most people just settled where they were. Hospitals did what they could, but the only group fully prepared for an event like this was the military, having been warned of an event like this after a man-made version occurred decades ago. In the 60s, a high altitude nuclear explosion took out Hawaii’s power grid 900 miles away from the test site. After that, the military poured billions of dollars into protecting their bases from an EMP event. As a result, anyone with a military ID automatically had access to the best of everything after the event happened. However, most people received their electricity from private corporations. These private corporations refused to spend the money to protect against EMPs beforehand, so when the event occurred, anyone outside of a military base was instantaneously sent back to the 1800s.

A Walk In The Snow
It had been twenty years since the EMPW’s (Electro Magnetic Pulse Weapons) had destroyed any semblance of normalcy; and Aras couldn’t believe how arduous the hike, so far, to the ocean was. Air travel no longer worked and routes that had once been easily drivable, were warped and broken; walking was the best means of getting from one place to another. Aras had left Albany, New York in hopes of finding relatives in Osterville, Massachusetts on Cape Cod. With every step, the visions of hugging and better yet, talking to a friendly face, strengthened the resolve to make it home. Figuring an average of 10 miles a day, Aras reckoned it would take about 25 days to complete the trip. The plan was to arrive on Christmas Day, as long as there were no life threatening, obstacles to overcome.
