When Revisions Are Frustrating Dave's Mind Wanders

My next book is going to be told entirely in flashback.

Except for the weighty foreshadowing in the prologue.

Please tell me you're writing a sequel to this. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057295/)

Clearly it would have to be a prequel.

(That movie looks awesome, though. Off to Netflix!)

Yeah, it's one of those things I caught on TV one Saturday when I was a kid that stuck with me over the years where a thousand other movies similarly viewed didn't. Apparently, that's true for a lot of other genre movie geeks, too, thus continued interest and the subtitled DVD release.''

And it's all told in flashback.

Wow. I had forgotten all about that movie. I'd seen it maybe five times when I was a kid--for some reason they showed it a lot on the local Chicago station (WGN?) whenever they had a schlocky movie afternoon.
