[from the feature film screenplay Distance from Avalon, by Mike Messier] JOE:I've been working on a theory. Would you like to hear it? HEARTBREAK: Of course. JOE: Our "past" equals who we've been. Our "present" equals who we are. Our "future" equals who we will be. Our "eternal" means who we will be for eternity. So where is the exponential? Where is the magic, the magnificence? Where is that "M-Life?" "M-Life" equals the combination of two or more of the these (past, present, future, eternal) at the same time. To live in the M-Life is to dig beneath the surface of the "societal norm of living" and live through and process time and space unique to oneself including "past life experiences." M-Life is to go beneath the plateau of common reality into past life experience while simultaneously, at least at times, experiencing reality with and common to, other traditional humans. Hide

"I did discover in these early projects that it can be difficult to write something and allow someone else to direct it. Their choices may be great ones, but if the vision is different than the writer's, even in a small way, then this can lead to conflict, either with the production itself or inner turmoil within the mind and soul of the writer, and writers have enough inner turmoil as it is. I mention this because I think it's an important lesson; if one is capable of writing, then that same writer might and even perhaps does "owe it to himself/herself" to also direct the project. This is from my own experience, others will feel differently. I know that every project is unique and some writers simply do not want to or are not equipped to direct, but for those that have a feeling they "could" or "should" direct, I would encourage them to give it a shot and see what happens." from the article/interview "All About Mike Messier" by Jaime Reborn, April 14, 2016 Hide

Pro wrestling means a lot to me. As a child, the larger than life characters were like real-life superheroes but with more humanity and more of an edge. I actually stopped with cartoons and comic books in order to watch wrestling and read wrestling magazines. I had a pro wrestling card game, called The Superstar Pro Wrestling Game, that I played for hours and perfected. I played with the action figures etc. Both of my parents were generous in their support of this and took me to many live pro wrestling shows. Years later, I got involved in the local circuit as a ring announcer, commentator, timekeeper and I even wrestled thirteen matches myself. I had an interview with the human resources representative at Titan Tower (WWE Headquarters) for the WWE Creative Writing Team. However, I think it's more of a personal reference business. If anyone has direct connections to the WWE, my comprehensive tournament based storyline would still be a good fit for the company, and I'd love to share it with the true higher-ups at WWE. Hide
