in #story • 8 years ago (edited)

The Devils Playground


This is a pilot episode for a webseries I developed. I'm planning an 8 episode season and need the funds to make it happen. It's based off my childhood including stories shared by other friends and family who grew up in this small, one circle block neighborhood known as, Kinwood.

I would love to get @barrycooper opinion of this story.. if you get a chance, I'd be very grateful for your feedback, Thanks

You can find out more about my production plans by checking out my most recent blog, Confession of My Profession and help get me to Steemfest

The Logline

A young successful business woman is forced to accept custody of her abandoned nephew and return to the drug infested slums where she was raised. Together they must learn to survive in this early 1990's Houston, Tx neighborhood known as the Devils Playground.

For My Uncle Michael "Psycho Michael"

      Some gold I found so far (slightly paraphrased):

      "He must be rich"

      "Rich?"

      "Yea, rich, he always drinks coke"

      ahaha.. yea, that dude was always walking the block drinking a can of coke. I was around the age of 7 but the innocence of my assumptions and what he was really doing, it's crazy but very very true story. It's those little moments that I'm exploring in this series

        I hope you get the funds. There is nothing better than to see someone fulfilling his wishes.
        Good luck
