Here's a stupid question. Who is John Rogers?
Dreg: Glory, Your Most Fresh-And-Cleanness. It's only a matter of time-- Glory: Ugh, everything always takes time! What about my time? Does anyone appreciate I'm on a schedule here?! Tick tock, Dreg! Tick freakin' tock!

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
He's the guy who executive produced Global Frequency (based on a Warren Ellis comic and starring Michelle Forbes). His blog has been circulating in screenwriting class circles for a while now (it's where I found it), and the GF pilot was leaked onto the web and got him an assload of attention.
And a college friend, but I suppose that has nothing to do with his popularity.

A One that isn't cold, is scarcely A One at all.
And he's writing the Transformers movie!

That bit I don't get. But it sure beats Catwoman and The Core.

Ah, so he's the friend you were looking askance at for the projects he'd worked on.

I judged him, I admit, and then I recanted.
Speaking of Global Frequency (weren't we), who, having watched the show or read the comic felt that the Frequency was something any of us could be a part of? John has said as much in interview, but I thought it was an elite panel of specialists, and as unattainable as being Jack Bauer or a Bristow.

I'm guessing that life-threatening emergencies which can only be averted by digital artists with an extensive knowledge of Buffy trivia are pretty rare. Not holding my breath for the call.

Any thing I can do, I can give you the digits of someone who can do it better. Now, if you need someone to do krav and display a knowledge of document management while speaking in Jamaican patois, I may just be the one for you.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
And if you need someone to analyze a script while entering invoices into QuickBooks and dancing to Earth, Wind & Fire, I'm your gal.
