Today I need to finish reading the plays and print out the ones I found. Perhaps I should write a play about Jane Austen's P&P from Darcy's pov (and no extra characters). I could entitle it, From My Perspective. I could have Darcy sitting at a desk in the study and only Bingley, Caroline, the colonel, and georgiana come into speak to him. lol I would have Elizabeth be a ghost like figure he talks to when alone. She could answer back. It could cover his time in LOndon before and after the proposal and right before he goes to Pemberly. We will see the transformation of the man. lol it is a scene in my head - we are just a little theater group and the single desk and a few chairs would work for us. Oh, and a butler/house steward. Maybe Lord and Lady Matlock.
Well this how my brain works. I jump from a task to a whole story. It becomes an obsession. It is a good obsession, since it does not involve illegal stuff: no drugs, no stealing, no killing. Well, drinking it would.
so I am off to read these plays and praying for the best.
Mama Mia was fun and I had a good day yesterday. But the play was better and we all thought the ending was slightly different. None of us can remember, we are getting so old!
take care

My writing journey towards a 50 chapter story. I am a little late starting it since I just found this weblog feature, so here we are beginning at Chapter 16.

Dear Gayle,
When I read your last post, this quote bothered me.
"“Yes, it seems strange that my opponent in this final competition is Mr. Kent, particularly after he fared so poorly in his own game."
So I went and read from beginning and to me it seems Kent did win his tavern games. I must be interpreting something wrong here!
Btw, I did not enter a vote for your poll! I feel it would be too awkward for me to guess. I went to see 2005 movie with my eldest (now 21) when it came out. She said she liked it very much while I was grunting the whole time I watched it.
Have a good day off!
Take care,
XOXO

oops. In my original draft I had Blake saying, after he fared so poorly in his game (I did not have the word own) Ok I confess, it was not a good sentence at all! lol Originally, Kent came in last in Blake's game which would make sense about how Kent fared in Blake's game. But the, ahem, math would not work! So I had to make Kent come in third in Blake's game lol
I tried cleaning it up and ended up with just a stupid sentence. I will change it at the two sites that allow change.
Thanks Melda! that is two issues this week brought to my attention. And I love it when someone brings stuff like this to me. I prefer to get it right!
