I felt worried about Six being a weapon and not my cousin, so I pretended to comfort Dixon.

One Line A Day - What I Should've Done
I saw Dumping Ground Island and did a blog entry about me adapting Scooby Doo, Care Bears and Chimpanzee.

I comforted Dixon, because I'm worried Six will die in Dr. F & The Screamiverse. A little love can make you smile.
Top 10 TV Series & Movies I Should've Made Into Books First
Sometimes it's best to think up the idea before anyone else thinks it. All these movies and TV shows were originally book ideas made by me...or so I think. Here are ten examples of films and TV series/specials that should've been made into best-selling books first by yours truly.
10.Inside Out. If I were to write Inside Out before it turned into a mega feature film, it would see the emotions as five Care Bear-like creatures who live inside Riley's mind, styled rather like gummy bears or the Jellikins. Bing Bong would still be present, but Imagination Land would have been described as 'imaginary with the scent of bubblegum milkshake'. Each of the Emotions' Belly Badge symbols would unleash powers into the control panel that would allow Riley to feel certain emotions, and whenever Anger would let Riley express what he was made for, he would change into an enormous, scaly, fire-breathing dragon. Whenever Riley feels excitement, everything inside her head would glow gold and the Emotions would float into the air, achieving pure happiness.
9.Bluey. Bluey is one of my all-time favourite shows on TV, besides Scream Street. If I got the ideas for the stories of Bluey and her family instead of Joe Brumm, each of the books in the Bluey series would have four stories, ala the Horrid Henry series. They would also be adapted into junior novels, with full-colour illustrations.
8.Ralph Breaks The Internet. If I were to make this story before it was even adapted into a film, the story would see Ralph adopt Vanellope when her mother falls ill from a glitch and dies. When Vanellope becomes a teen, her game Sugar Rush gets unplugged, and she and Ralph decide to run away into the internet to seek a new purpose in life. Like with the Oh My Disney scene where Vanellope interacts with the princesses, Ralph and Vanellope would've interacted with other kid-friendly websites and characters, such as CBBC, CBeebies, My Little Pony, Sesame Street and Huggies, among others.
7.Dumping Ground Island and Jody In Wonderland. If I were to turn the two awesome Dumping Ground specials into books before they were adapted into specials, that would be during the years before the Dumping Ground even aired. Dumping Ground Island would be inspired by Polynesian culture, the music of Te Vaka and will even include Polynesian words and phrases, ala Moana. In it, Tyler is depicted as a rambunctious teen with an active imagination who wants everyone to let him get his way in his foster care home. When he beats up Jody during her birthday party, he is sent to his room, and sees a magical portal in his island paintings that leads him to the island of his dreams. Now, like in the special, he and his stranded friends must face their fears to get off, while Tyler discovers his ability to control nature on the island. It would also include a scene where, during a thunderstorm, Jody and the others are forced to abandon ship and almost drown trying to save each other. Jody In Wonderland, meanwhile, would be inspired by brony songs, classic children's TV such as Bagpuss, Play School and In The Night Garden and the original English literature classic, Alice In Wonderland. In it, foster kid Jody must come to terms with the fact that her brother Kingsley is actually an evil warlord who works for the Wonder Factory in the magical Wonderland. She is forced to eat a magical cupcake that allows her to go to Wonderland and fight Kingsley once and for all. Throughout the book, Jody will break the fourth wall, talking to the readers and asking questions, to which readers must fill in, pantomime-style. It'll also contain poems, such as a romp through Wonderland sung by Jody, the adaptions of the poems in the special and a nursery rhyme medley sung by Jody as she wanders through an old-fashioned British town.
6.Chimpanzee. Adapting a DisneyNature film into a book about talking animals is easy as finding a needle in a haystack, especially when you think about casting Tim Allen as both young chimp Oscar and his foster father Freddy. In my adaption of Chimpanzee, the chimps would've talked instead of screamed and yelled, Oscar would crack wise even though he's 4 (except for when he loses Isha), and he would have friends, too - Max, Zoe and teenage brother Jack. Scar would refer to his troops as 'brothers' and the story would feature dialogue such as 'Tickle fight, mommy, tickle fight!' and 'You are flesh of my flesh, skin of my skin, feet of my feet, blood of my blood', the second quote Freddy would tell Oscar when he's grooming him. Freddy would've also been revealed as the biological father of Oscar, as he was with Isha when she was pregnant, but left her to become a bachelor again. Tim Allen would certainly narrate the audiobook if there were one, and Glenn Close would voice Isha, while Alfred Molina would voice Scar.
5.Care Bears: Journey To Joke-A-Lot. If I were a teen in the '70s, I would be inspired by Raggedy Ann & Andy: A Musical Adventure to do the Care Bears before they would even become a thing in the '80s. The Care Bears would live in peace and harmony in their little cloud kingdom above earth, but Funshine Bear always wrecks everything. On his own, he runs away and takes a fast dodgem ride to a wacky world where brownies, ice cream and candyfloss are on the menu every day, bathtubs are giant and poodles monitor you as a tough walrus makes your hair into shapes like diggers and dinosaurs. His friends must band together to rescue him and help him understand the true meaning of friendship. Unfortunately, this film came out when I was 4, so it would be best if the Care Bears were a book series first.
4.Scooby Doo & The Ghoul School. Matters count that I would've made Scooby Doo before Hanna-Barbera even did, as my version of the Ghoul School film would be just like Little Wolf's Book Of Badness. When the Mystery Inc. gang catch Scooby and Shaggy playing dirty, they reprimand them and send them off to a special boarding school - one for ghosts, ghouls and monsters! Scooby, Shaggy and their friend Scrappy-Doo are frightened at first, but they would get used to it and help fight off an evil witch who is planning to get rid of every monster and ghoul in the world. The story would be presented in the form of letters to Fred, Daphne and Velma, but now that it's made a part of the Hanna-Barbera Superstars 10 series, I give up on doing that.
3.Scooby Doo & The Goblin King. Scooby Doo & The Goblin King is the most awesome Scooby Doo movie ever. If I were to adapt it into a book first, it would be much like the Hanna-Barbera Superstars 10 series - Scooby and Shaggy would go trick or treating, but then would follow some golden fairy footprints to a magic shop belonging to mysterious magician and his fairy companion, who lead them on an adventure to Halloween Land. My adaptation would also feature a performance of Little Lamb Dragonfly by Paul McCartney, much like 'We All Stand Together' from Rupert & The Frog Song.
2.The Lion King. Turning Disney's sweeping epic into a graphic novel would be just like making DisneyNature's African Cats into a Warriors-style novel, filled with violence, blood and dramatic dialogue. In my version, Furaha would make her debut as Simba's best friend in place of Nala, and would run away with Simba when he witnesses his father being murdered by Scar and the stampede. Furaha would be depicted as a mysterious and immortal character with magic powers who aids Simba from the moment he was born, and would often be a happy and playful character. Timon and Pumbaa would also have an extended family of other warthogs and meerkats living in the jungle, including Ma and Uncle Max, who were present in the second Lion King direct-to-video movie, and Timon's kooky, dance-loving grandma. Since I already have a Scar listed above, Scar would be renamed to Kifo, but the hyenas would remain the same. Also, while Zazu is giving the morning report, instead of giving him a pouncing lesson, Mufasa reminds a puzzled Simba what each phrase Zazu blurts out means in human terms, and reminds him humans are dangerous, as they are 'fleshed killers'.
1.Scream Street. This one is an obvious choice besides Bluey, if I were to create the series in place of Tommy Donbavand, Luke would still live in Scream Street, but he, Resus and Cleo would slack off rather than save the town, until they are called by a mysterious book to save the future of their people. Familiar characters from the TV series such as Farp, Luella and Dixon make an appearance, and even Dig and Lulu, who aren't present in the books and may not be present in the current episodes of the TV series, which will appear on CBBC in two weeks, will appear as the trio's pets. They will even live together with their parents in one big house, with a little sister character based on me.
We all know where this is going...

Scream Street made me believe in ghosts, especially poltergeists like Chucker, Basher and Sir Otto's mum.
