Feeling creative?

For the past couple of weeks I've been heavily involved in lots of business meetings for Moket. We're moving into a period where we'll be preparing the company for it's next step in evolution (more to come...), and so I've been spenindg a lot of time selling the Moket vision. Since I'm pretty excited about the future of Moket and what we're going to achieve (talk it up Dale, talk it up!), the more I talk to people about the whole thing, the more excited I get. And I find that the more excited I get about it, the more creative I feel. Now for some creative types, just the thought of managing the growth of a business would be enough for them to run to the hills, but not me for some reason.

So the other day, after many meetings and discussions on the business, I started to feel very inspired to do something I have always wanted to do - author a story for a Phantom comic. It helped that I had been working with some guys in the US on the Moket Comics business plan (again, more later ...). I had this quick thought of a story line, and within an hour or so I had a synopsis and detailed outline of the general story and characters. Very cool!

Don't expect it to be hitting the shelves in the next month or anything though ... I have to try and find a publisher who can look at it for me and hopefully won't tell me that maybe I should stick to Flash :) But the moral of the story (this story, not my Phantom story) is when you're feeling creative, or an idea pops into your head - get it down! Grab a dictaphone or leave yourself a voice mail. Write something down or sketch it out in a notebook. Find some way of recording that creative thought because you just don't know what it could become.

So, if there's anyone from FREW or Egmont, or any other publisher of The Phantom that wants a rip roaring story of rock'n'roll, secret societies and stolen government secrets, you can send an email to comics@moket.com.au and we'll talk ;)
