Morning pages

It just entered my brain pan that I could use my blog for morning pages, when I'm not hot on the trail of a play that is.

For the uninitiated, morning pages were a suggestion of Julia Cameron in A Writers Way as a way of working your way out of being blocked, sort of a way to keep writing when you don't feel the impulse necessarily. Her thing is ninety minutes, but since that's not going to happen anything at all is a way to work those muscles a bit. So who knows maybe I'm going to get regular with this stuff . . . which might or might not be a good thing.

So no particular topic for today. We took a few days off from rehearsing Happy Days because we were feeling a bit under the weather. Actually we were planning to rehearse on Sunday, but since it was Mother's Day and Laurette came out and surprised Bette by showing up . . . we haven't done it for a while. But now that we're back on track we should be able to get with the program.

We're all set for the summer, have our places to stay and are really looking forward to this. It is gonna be work, and it is going to be living on the edge to do Beckett, but this should be a really nice production. It sure feels good I'll tell you that.

Can't imagine what we'd rather be doing . . . 'cause there isn't anything we'd rather be doing.

Ok, off for breakfast and spending a few minutes with the Karamazov brothers . . . then . . . to work!

The only updates regarding Writer's Block are that, I finally registered it with the Library of Congress and now I'm sending it around . . . so far to Penguin Rep and Playwrights Horizons . . . maybe a couple of other people as well . . . then some competitions . . . and then . . . who knows . . . maybe I'll get an idea for another play!
