I first met John King in December of 2002. I was a freshman at Ball State University applying for a position as an op/ed columnist for the Ball State Daily News. John was a grad student and the editorial page’s editor. And he gave me the position and encouraged me. A few years after that John was teaching in the English department and I took his screenwriting class and learned the fundamentals of the medium.
John started a great new blog a few months back called Little Round Mirrors. His objective: to watch all 500+ films in his DVD collection and blog about them. It’s not a film review site so much as an opportunity to reflect on his relationship with and life experiences related to movies that he’s acquired over the years. I enthusiastically recommend checking it out.
