Warren Ellis is blogging from the set of GLOBAL FREQUENCY. This graphic novel of Warren's is becoming a WB TV series; shooting is under way in Canada and the end result is slated to air in March, 2005. From time to time, he lifts his head out of that trough of cold Red Bull long enough to futurephone a blog entry about how bizarre the whole experience is. The result? A magnificently good online read. His permalinks are b0rked right now, and this may have something to do with the fact he's posting from his Treo — so just go to the main page, find August 11's post, and work your way forward in time from there.
