Thinking about the best way to get back into some sort of regular writing routine, I mean, it's been years, and trying to find a way to talk about the parts of pop culture that I love--books (also culture, culture), movies, and television, I've got a challenge for myself this year.
#1. Watch the Apple $0.99 cent movie of the week and then write a review. Maximum length: 1,000 words.
#2. If it's based on a book, read the book first. If it's a sequel, no need to have watched the previous films, and...
#3. Don't put a time limit on your reviews. One week I might write three reviews, I might go a month without writing any (and probably forget the film once I get there... mom brain).
#4. Try not to cloud my judgement by watching OTHER movies that week...
And see what happens. Are they good? Do they roughly appeal to my demographic? What themes appear? Will I care by the end of the year, probably not, and I'll probably give up halfway through, but it's a start.
Here we go.
