First blog

Hi,  I'm J.D. Oliva, 28 year-old filmmaker/writer/wrestling coach/videographer/entrepreneur/White Sox fan/avid comic reader/ect. 

So, this is the first entry of my new blog and if you're reading this, I'm going to have to ask you...why?

Seriously though, I decided to start this blog because I've had a lot of downtime lately, the video bus. is kinda slow in January, I have plenty of Feb and March bookings, but Jan on the whole pretty much sucks. So, I want to use this extra time to get going on some writing. I was doing really good for awhile (I have the 2nd draft of my comic complete and I'm thirty some pages into my new screenplay) but sometimes I sit at my computer and just waste time on the internet. Comicbookresources.com takes up much more of my time than I car to admit.

So, I decided to start this blog as kind of a catharsis for my random thoughts. I got the idea from reading Chuck Dixon's blog (http://www.dixonverse.net). It seems like a great way to get those annoying thoughts out of your head so you can focus on more important things, even if no one reads them (more a plus for me than Mr. Dixon). Plus, it's always good to warm your figures up before really writing or (video) editing.

Anyway, most of the stuff I'm going to talk about here are going to revolve around movies, comics and wrestling. That's pretty much everything outside of my family and God (I'll probably talk about him a lot too) that I'm interested in.

I also joined twitter which is basically lazy blogging, so it should be a perfect fit for me.

Anyway, I'm going to post about one of these per day. So, I'm out.

Later

J.D.
