Screenwriter Alan Ball talks death, TV and beta-blockers, writes Kylie Northover.
WHEN you create a TV series built entirely around the central premise of death, you're asking to be forever after referred to as ''death obsessed'' - but it's a tag that screenwriter Alan Ball, writer of the funeral home-set Six Feet Under and True Blood, rejects.
''I don't know that I'm obsessed with it; I don't think about it every day. I think we all definitely think about it, we're all aware of it,'' he says.
But even Ball's appearance at the Wheeler Centre this weekend is billed as a discussion of his ''ongoing preoccupation with death and suburban America''.
When he was 13, he was in a car accident with his sister - she was driving - and she died in front of him.

I don't know if you have written about this yet, but a really cool new makeup palette came out recently. Tart released a TRue Blood makeup palette! It's super cool and worth mentioning. http://store.hbo.com/detail.php?p=296613&ecid=AFF-7973318&PID=5406812&pa=affcj

I don't know,but i think the show has at

I'm someone who has lived a life seemingly in the background, I must say this final indignity I have suffered almost too much to endure. You see, I have been sickly and weak since the day I was born and doomed to go through my life weakling. I seemed to have always suffered from one illness or another and could never play with the other children as I so desperately wanted to. Mother always made such a big fuss over me, also, making the situation worse as the other boys teased me mercilessly after they saw it. I was browsing the internet searching on how I could be transformed into a powerful person when I came across the email of a man named Lord Mark. who was a VAMPIRE so I told him that I has always dreamed of becoming a VAMPIRES, All i did was just to follow the procedure that i was been told, and i bet you that procedure I took change my entire life to something i ever desire, freedom, sickness free, pains free, fame, influence, connections and even more that i can. Thanks to Lord Mark. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the vampires creed today via email: Vampirelord7878@gmail.com
