These stories never get a good first chapter. It''s usually an abrupt start.
Well, get used to it.
I don''t have time to explain everything to you.
I lived for 39 years.
I got married once, divorced, no kids.
I worked as an editor and became friends with some medium big named directors, maybe you''ve heard of them, maybe you haven''t. I won''t name them because if you don''t know them, it''d be awkward when I boast about it, and I''ve made that mistake too many times to count.
Anyways, I''m busy, I have to work on this script and get the copyright before the original writer can.
Stolen story; please report.
Oh right, I died.
Yep, died. It''s a long story, but you''ve heard it before. At least you should have. If you''re from my time that is.
In the future, there should be thousands of stories about a second chance.
I died, got sent back in time, and now I''m trying to make use of my knowledge from the past to get ahead.
I know, it''s a little scummy.
Well... It isn''t THAT scummy, minus the part where I plagiarize the work of someone else.
And yeah, maybe I could write something original, but that would take A LOT more time and would be a lot less financially responsible. Why would I waste time trying to make some crappy original when I have a wide category of guaranteed works at my disposal?
Anyways, I need to get started RIGHT NOW. If I want to accomplish my ambitions that is.
I want to make something great, something that was unimaginable in my past life.
I want to make something that people will enjoy for YEARS, for the rest of their life even.
It''s going to be pretty epic, but I have so little time and so few funds.
And I need funds. ALOT of FUNDS. MONEY.
I NEED A LOT OF MONEY.
I''m so tired right now. Someone, please send help, I''m gonna die... again.
