I woke up this morning, early this morning, with dialogue from three different plays running through my head. It was all very confusing but I think it's a legacy (if I am using that word correctly in this instance) from NOT having finished these plays in the past. A teaching moment, readers!
And that's why I am writing plays right now, readers, if there are any readers left.
Still I feel guilty about it. I should not be writing plays, I should be writing my stories. But then stopping myself from writing plays right now would mean no writing at all.
Then of course I start thinking that I am writing the WRONG play. I should be writing this play, not that play, and on and on, and then I think that all these plays are stupid. And then I think that all the new plays I've seen this season are stupid, so maybe I'm onto something.
Then: with this attitude, i.e., everything is stupid, how will anything ever get done? (This is always my struggle.)
And let's not forget, readers, my penchant for unreasonable expectations, as I answer that question above, i.e., how will anything ever get done?, by thinking, I'll just finish all those plays this week and feel so much better! Then back to the stories!
Anyway, back to work. I just thought of an ending for one of the plays!
Incidentally, when I went to find the Mildred just now to post on it, I typed the Mildred into my browser and a google search ensued. We are on page 10 of the google search, so on the one hand we are not so popular, I guess, but on the other, page 10! I can't believe it! There are so many other entries for the Mildred on google that come after page 10!
