My biggest problem with this was the overall story goal.
I felt that I knew what effects I wanted, but that was really it. I was in such a rut over thinking about this play in ONE WAY, that I had a hard time escaping it.
Hopefully I can use this momentum to create something more lasting.
I had two plays up in a great Nashville Ten-minute play festival, and thought I’d upload the programs
Okay, there has been this great site that I’ve been looking at for a while, but never looked deep enough to make a difference in my work, just to appreciate how cool it was.
So, now that I’m on Christmas break, and have not a lot of school stuff to do, I’m going to do the 2011 PlotWriMo (Plot Writing Month), as a framework for the outline of my next full-length (which I wanted to do anyway..)
So I’ll try to do a post every day (or every other day)…
And here’s where I’m starting

I’m submitting to Inkwell again this year, and they asked some questions that I must have missed last year. I submitted “Magician’s Apprentice”, and was asked to describe how this play pushes the boundaries of theater…
I think I may have responded with the end result in mind, not my current draft..

This is not a post about observations in a foreign culture. But I just finished “Hero With A Thousand Faces”, and I wanted to write my notes here, as it deals with how to structure plays.
I finished my first draft of Clockwork Child. Now on to fixing it.
Fox-Valley Rep (who commissioned Clockwork Child) asked me to write a blogpost, chronicling my progress. I sent it off today, but thought I could include it here as well.
Gary’s Notes of Relationships (took during Gary Garrison’s lecture on playwriting during the Kennedy Center’s Summer Playwright Intensive)
My play proposal was recently accepted into the Collider Project.
I am beyond excited, and this weekend is a big research weekend for me. I wanted to figure out a good way to document my research in a way that I can: control what I view, go back and search for it, access it remotely, and share what my process is.
I’m going to be using this blog to examine how possible this is.
