WRITING: Lo-Fi Sci-Fi In the Land of Gangnam

I went to a Seoul film festival in October 2012 to present a feature I co-directed, and give a two-hour lecture on low-budget filmmaking. In short, it was a disaster. Like: giving your R-rated lecture to 75 Korean school-children through an interpreter disaster. So I wrote a story about it.

Released as an ebook in 2013, it's now freely available in epub, pdf and mobi formats at No Media Kings.

Novelist Thomas Trofimuk called it a "Brilliant story from the irrepressible Tate Young!!!!", and noted uber-comedy-writer Marty Chan said "Oh my god, I was laughing at this article. Way to survive." People love very slow train wrecks.
