Paperman (Or: Why Silence Can Be Awesome)

Apologies for the blog silence--I've been a bit under the weather. On the upside, I'm all caught up on Justified, and I started writing the third book in the Double Vision series. Exciting!

Oddly, I gained a ton of Twitter followers while I was away, so perhaps I should shut up more often.

On the topic of silence, I thought I'd share this short silent film by the Disney people called Paperman. When I first saw it as a preview to some other movie I was about to see, I loved it, and you could hear a pin drop in the theater. I think it's up for an Oscar, so fingers crossed.

  1. Fleur, I hope you are feeling all right now. My best wishes to you on your third book and congratulations on the expanding Twitter following. Nothing like milestones to keep one's spirits up. Thanks for the link to PAPERMAN which I'll check out back home. I rarely pass up anything animated and this one looks good. And if it's about silence then I'll probably learn something!
