The WOMAN (CALISTA) who was calling walks over to the DANL

DANL
But mom, I’m talking to this man.
He has been telling me a gre…well
I hope a great story.
CALISTA
Hello sir, is my child bothering
you?
ALISTER
No, no he is just fine.
(Alister puts his hand out to
shake hers)
Nice to meet you mam. My name is
Alister.
DANL
Mom, he writes comic books.
CALISTA
Oh…
(Beat)
Oh hi.
(she shakes his hand)
You look familiar.
ALISTER
Oh.
(Beat)
Oh I must have one of those faces.
Alister was trying to place her too, but he was having a
struggling time doing so.
CALISTA
No! No I think I know where.
ALISTER
You…you…do?! Well, I’m in here
at least a couple times a week.
CALISTA
No…no not here somewhere else. I
just can’t place it.
DANL
I thought you wanted me…was it
because you wanted to to get some
food?
CALISTA
Oh, yes…that’s why I was looking
for you. It’s getting late.
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 5.
(She takes her sons hand)
Well nice to meet you Mr. Alister,
but we need to go.
ALISTER
Okay, but I promised I would finish
my story tomorrow if you don’t mind
bringing your son back.
CALISTA
Oh! Oh…kay.
Calista walks her son out of the comic book store. Alister
goes back to one of the boxes full of older comics.
ALISTER (V.O)
Now that was weird.
(He shakes his head)
I still can’t place her. Well I’ll
keep on thinking and maybe tomorrow
when I tell Danl more of my story.
As Alister stands in front of the box for a couple of
minutes, thumbing through picking out a comic then putting
it back. Then taking out another as Calista rushes in with
her son being pulled behind.
CALISTA
Alister I…I remember you now.
Where I’ve seen you. That is.
ALISTER
O…Oh really. WHERE?
CALISTA
I…I’ve seen you before I was in
and out of consciousness.
ALISTER
Wha…You, were what mam?
Both Alister and DANL look at the Calista wondering what she
was talking about.
DANL
Mom what are you talking about?
CALISTA
Well, DANL it was when you were
four. Your dad and I went on a date
as you stayed with your grams. It
was five almost six years now.
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 6.
ALISTER
Okay so what does that have to do
with me?
CALISTA
You don’t remember? Well let’s just
say you ripped the door off of the
car. And you saved me.
DANL
No…no way is this the guy you
told me about. The
super-strong guy who saved you
before the car you were in blew up.
CALISTA
Do you remember now Mr. Alister?
ALISTER
Ah…
(Beat)
Well…
(Beat)
Yes…yes I remember.
(Beat)
I…well DANL few people know this
story so I’m going to let you and
your mom in on a little secret. It

DANL
Okay…mom can we stay and listen

The Ring A Movie
Movie Script
Logline: The fascinating story of a simple man who travels to a different dimension only to find something so powerful that he doesn’t know what to do with it, but it knows.
Do you wonder what you would do with endless wishes? Would you become a millionaire? Would you become famous? Would you solve all the world’s problems? Or would you even want to become a super hero? My name is Forrest Rawls and I’ve written a script that has fantasy, science fiction, and adventure; and it’s suitable for teens and beyond.
In “The Ring” Alister in his mid-30s finds this power of endless wishes and must not only figure out where it came from, but once he finds out about it, how would he use this power? Would he become a hero, saving lives and helping others? Or would he become self-absorbed and wish for the world to be a slave to him?
Alister raised, as most would hope with loving parents and when he got older, he worked a regular day job, which he hates. Alister decides one day to take his dog for a walk, but not the same path they had always gone, but to a place, they hadn’t walked before. Once on this new path he finds a powerful ring that unbeknownst to him has a great secret and a great power. He drives home from being transported to a different dimension and finding this ring to coming upon something that would not only change his life, but change his thoughts about even the simplest wish, that it can become so much more.
With great power, there are those that seek it and to use it for their will, as with the Zulnar’ of the story. Zulnar’ will do anything in his power to get the ring, but our lead will do everything to keep the ring.
I believe mending fantasy, science fiction, and adventure together with a great script can make anyone who “wishes” for something will see that not all wishes aren’t possible, but full of endless wonders. I hope that your wishes come true.

Passion
When people talk about passion, it is an yearning for something that one puts their whole heart into. They just can’t get enough of that something or someone. Well, this I thought I had about writing spending the past 20 years reading and learning, but another class and another editor says I have a long way to go. What the hell have I been doing these 20 years just wishing I was a writer and sitting on my hands? No! I just read and write. Why am I not better at what I thought I loved or was passionate about? Why, do I keep getting told I have a long way to go? People reading this those very few might see that this what I’m writing now had errors in it. Such as grammar, punctuation, spelling and others. Why can’t I get the help my cousin Wilson Rawls did?
You may have read some of my other posts, and if you have you may read a lot of me bitching and moaning about things. You might be sick of it well I’m sorry. I’m here to shed light on my life no matter how boring it might be. I have wanted to be an actor, a script writer. I wanted to be a great artist. Why did God allow me to live when my appendix ruptured? I wanted to do something more than guy bagging groceries, but lately I think that is where my life is heading. I wanted to do YouTube videos, but they disabled my account because someone clicked repeatedly on a video and of course, when I disputed this, I didn’t write it well enough for them to reactivate it.
When I was in high school, I wanted to play football that didn’t work. I played baseball as a kid who went nowhere. I wanted to sing and be in a rock group, that didn’t work. I think I’m smart, but am I? I can’t dance. I can’t is so my word these last few days. I wanted to do voice-over work but living in Idaho, there is no school or help of any kind and no money you can’t move to a place that can help.
So, my passion for what I want to be and do is gone, and I don’t know where my life will go. I know my faith is so small an ant is too big.
So what do I do? Where do I go from here? I’ve done the college thing ran out of loans and no degree to show for it. Those friends with their own businesses won’t hire me because I live to far, but the main thing is I have no education. I’m not fit I’m not hot I’m not female, so there are many things against me. So, please tell me what to do? My passion is gone. People say others have it worse, but why do I feel I’m living in the worst? (This I wrote off my meds. Still trying to get them.)
Script for Issue 1 of The Legacy comic book
Disclaimer: This is unedited and may contain language that is not suitable for a young audience. Reader discretion advised.
Page 1 Page 1
Panel 1 Alister from a rooftop looks towards the church on
the hill. Darkness consumes the sky but there is a small
light piercing the sky above the church. Behind Alister
sits his hovercycle. His sword is in its sheath on his
back.
ALISTER
I can’t believe it’s been 10 years
since all this began, and I still
try to do good, but all I want to
do is rest. Rest it seems to be all
I think of when I should be
thinking of this city; think of my
city. I’m the one, the person that
was chosen. I was the one born to
this family. I must keep my head up
high when it seems this war will
never end. I know, however, that it
will end. I don’t know how I don’t
know when, but what I do know is
that it will end when you are
ready. This building so many times
I stood right here this spot, and
gazed out into the city, to hear
the cries of the people below. Oh
God God these dark skies I’m sick
of them. I want to see the sun
again. I want to see more than the
sliver of light that you shine on
the church. Oh, that church that
changed my life. God why did you
put it on that hill? Did you have
people build it so that you didn’t
have to move the hill? Like the
Bible said that you can move
mountains. Why am I still doing
this? Why am I again alone I
thought you would never leave or
forsake me?
Page 2 Page 2: 2975A.D. Alister flashes back to when he
finds out about his parents and sisters death.
Panel 1 Taking up the top 3rd of the page: You see a
church on the front of it, it says “Harvest Church;”
behind the church in the distance you see the church on
the hill.
ALISTER
I remember how I spiraled out of
control at least my life did. Okay,
I did too. It was at the church my
family had gone to for years. I had
gone when I was young, but when I
became a teenager they let me
decide what I wanted to do. So I
stopped going.
Panel 2 Taking up the middle of the page: Inside the
church, people standing, some with their hands up in the
air, as they are singing.
ALISTER
I thought it was strange to see
people raise their hands and jump
up and down praising a being that
one couldn’t see.
Panel 3 Taking up the bottom 3rd of the page: Inside the
church, people sitting as the preacher is standing at his
pulpit preaching.
ALISTER
As I recall the last service, for
what I was told later. Was talking
about…
PASTOR
Today we are going to talk about
the love of God, and his
forgiveness.
Page 3 Page 3: 2975A. D. Alister’s flash back of his parents
and sisters death. Part 2.
Panel 1 People are leaving the church but a few are still
standing around talking. The pastor comes up to a couple
and their daughter.
PASTOR
Where’s your son Alister.
MOTHER
He didn’t want to come; he says
there is no God.
PASTOR
Oh, he is in the stage of his life
like others have been. The stage
that things that we can’t see must
be none existent or not real.
Panel 2 Taking most of the page the church explodes.
Panel 3 Alister stands at the funeral, a tear rolling down
his cheek.
ALISTER
I can still remember what I thought
at the funeral.
ALISTER
(thinking)
Mom gave me a choice to go with
them, but I didn’t. Because I
didn’t, I mean I don’t believe in
God. This would have never happened
if there was a God.
ALISTER (CON’T)
Oh my thoughts went crazy that day,
but that was the day my path would
split and I would go down the road
that had no path. I was making my
own way. Or this is what I thought.
Page 4 Page 4

care of this demon swine.
Page 8 Page 8

What do you want?
I was asked why I was doing a blog if it didn’t deal with what I’m doing and that is writing. Why aren’t you talking or showing off some of what you write? So I decided since I want to be a comic book writer (or at least it’s my main focus right now) that I would put something up for everyone to see and hear me talk about it. That I did in a previous post.
Now it’s up to you!
Do you want to hear about my comic book writing or would you like to see a sample script or just other writing? Let me know in the comments below.
Memories
We should not look at the past with regrets, but as the past with memories that we will never forget.
Marriage
Well, my wife and I have been together for over 7 years now and married 5. We seem to have tiffs her and there and really no explosions really. So when I was getting situated on my medication, I blew up. Then last night again I blew up. However, I more felt that she was being selfish because I told her that we went to my hometown to see my mom and possibly some friends. Well, my wife was sick of hearing about my dead stepfather and didn’t want to be in the house anymore so she walked to our friends. Well, I was about to walk out the door to go home because I had school work, and the dogs hadn’t gone to the “Potty” for 12 hours. Again, I just wanted to go see mom talk hang help then home. Well, my wife was at our friends, so I went over to pick her up. However, she was pissed at me because she wanted to hang with them. I yelled and told her that we don’t need to hang out or see them every time we went to my home town. Well, She stormed out of car, and I drove off. I found myself wondering what I did wrong, but I felt I did nothing but yell. So I went back to pick her up. 3 hours later we finally set out to go home. I was tired as hell and worried about the dogs. She just wanted to get away from things happening around her that she felt was pushing her in a whole well I knew of some stress, but I was surprised to hear her say she didn’t want to hear about death, and she has had enough death in her family. I thought isn’t death a part of life, and we just need to remember but move on? Well needless to say we did talk for a while and got it out of our way. I did know marriage was daily work. I didn’t know it would be a part of my life’s work, but then again, there I go thinking again.
Suicide
I thought of this today “suicide” not in the way to commit it as I was to do something harmful to myself in response to life’s ever evolving and ever disappointing battle. I thought of this as why do I want to destroy something that I have struggled with for many years. Do I want to give up, do I give a damn? I, however, found myself in a pit a deep one. One with many thoughts and droughts about myself. I didn’t know where to turn so I opened my email read the scripture of the day and then opened my mind to the possibilities that are never ending. I wanted to commit “suicide” in the way that I wanted to give up on writing and dreaming, but then I said if I don’t dream I don’t hope if I don’t hope, subsequently I don’t believe things will change or get better. So now I dream to hope, hope to dream life will run like a river stream with bumps, ups and downs, but then I know I made it around to the other side of the river, and there I will find a calm open mind to let things flow out like a gentle breeze.
