Since the playwrighting world is so fiercely competitive i.e. so many writers, so few theaters, I'm kinda glad Zoom has opened new possibilities for "the rest of us" to be seen. There is so much good writing on NPX that isn't seen.
@j_liz_henry Have you ever been raped or beaten? These actions need to be prosecuted, don't you think? Or how about Murder? They happen every day as it is. There are crimes in the penal system. but they need to be prosecuted also.
I think the terms "black" and "white" are divisive and misleading. POC (persons of color) seems better. When will we come to a time when we needn't refer to the ridiculous typing with skin color? I think the black/white distinction was perpetrated by police prompts?
@TiraPalmquist I know they have some great meds. I also have inflammatory arthritis, and I use mostly a healthy diet, keep weight off the joints, and exercise, still use physical therapy exercises.
@RachelBublitz Use the lamp behind the computer or laptop. Don't leave too much space on top of your head, so appear in most of the screen. Advice I read...also, wear light make-up? Not a lot of light behind you.
Sequestering is a better word than "shelter in place" which reminds me of the cold war. Then, too, "lockdown" seems to refer to prison. To sequester means to seclude oneself - don't writers do that anyway?
@RSolteroBrown "Longing" a history play about the turbulent sixties. So many takes on this topic are not historically accurate. This one is. We all take poetic license, but a first-hand account can seldom lie.
@PatriciaMilton You found it, you clever girl. Read #TheWarningPlays I wrote to help prevent girls from being lured into the #sextrade. I guess it's a #series. #NPX. I wrote them, I really did.
@RachelBublitz Miss?? Are you a graduate of Cal Berkeley? Just curious. If so, no wonder you work so hard. But you work hard anyway. I'm a graduate of Cal Berkeley.
@Phatthedd@LarkTheatre Do you mean you are a #residentplaywright? I am a retired playwright who just tweeted about experience being a great teacher. I do have a B.A. also, with some honors, which is useful for the technical aspects of writing. I draw completely from people and places I have known.
@HannahCLangley Do I dare to ask what you are doing now? Do I "dare to eat a peach" #T.S.Eliot. I wrote my senior thesis comparing #TheLovesongofJ.AlfredPrufrock" to #Eliot's favorite philosopher #Bradley. We #litmajors are serious people.
