Creative Writing for Gnomes



I'm finishing writing three episodes of Snacky's Journal; I figure since they are only 3-5 minutes long, it would be a better use of time to have the actors record more than one at a time. The titles are, so far: "Mad about Murlocs", "Worried about Weight", and "Doubtful about Dating" - so you can have a pretty good guess at the story content, I'm sure. Here's a snippet:

EXT. STORMWIND

Snacky opens the window and yells down at Angie.

SNACKY
WHAT! I'm trying to write something
in this stupid journal you gave me!

ANGIE
But I just had this great idea!

SNACKY
So what?

ANGIE
Well, don't you want to hear what
it is?

SNACKY
No.

ANGIE
Yes you do.

SNACKY
No, I don't.

ANGIE
Murloc tipping!

Beat.

SNACKY
OK, that IS a great idea.

Snacky's Journal



I started on a webseries called "Snacky's Journal" while working on the monolithic Orc, in order to have something I could finish relatively quickly and that people might look forward to the next episode of...eventually. My goal is to make short little vignettes that are relatively kid-friendly and goofy, and that you don't have to be a gamer to enjoy. That way, there might be other places that would show it. More details coming soon. Now I gotta figure out what to get some people for Xmas!
