1 Back to the Past?

These stories never get a good first chapter. It's usually an abrupt start.

Well, get used to it.

I don't have time to explain everything to you.

I lived for 39 years.

I got married once, divorced, no kids.

I worked as an editor and became friends with some medium big named directors, maybe you've heard of them, maybe you haven't. I won't name them because if you don't know them, it'd be awkward when I boast about it, and I've made that mistake too many times to count.

Anyways, I'm busy, I have to work on this script and get the copyright before the original writer can.

Oh right, I died.

Yep, died. It's a long story, but you've heard it before. At least you should have. If you're from my time that is.

In the future, there should be thousands of stories about a second chance.

I died, got sent back in time, and now I'm trying to make use of my knowledge from the past to get ahead.

I know, it's a little scummy.

Well... It isn't THAT scummy, minus the part where I plagiarize the work of someone else.

And yeah, maybe I could write something original, but that would take A LOT more time and would be a lot less financially responsible. Why would I waste time trying to make some crappy original when I have a wide category of guaranteed works at my disposal?

Anyways, I need to get started RIGHT NOW. If I want to accomplish my ambitions that is.

I want to make something great, something that was unimaginable in my past life.

I want to make something that people will enjoy for YEARS, for the rest of their life even.

It's going to be pretty epic, but I have so little time and so few funds.

And I need funds. ALOT of FUNDS. MONEY.

I NEED A LOT OF MONEY.

I'm so tired right now. Someone, please send help, I'm gonna die... again.
