Cross that off

Day two, and I have crossed the first thing off my list! And yep, it feels fantastic.

Look at this:

52. Write a short play.

Okay, well, I will.

And I did, so now you look like this:

52. Write a short play.

Done. It was called A Touch of War but somewhere in the drafting process it became Stupid, and Terrible which I know is asking for a cheap shot from a reviewer but still, if it works it works. Right?

Anyway, it's a 10 minute play with three female characters who are all gathered for the funeral of a soldier killed in war. They are all isolated in the same house and don't speak to each other but rather it is three monologues melded together as they all talk about this man who is never coming home.

And because resting on my laurels is never going to happen this year, I promptly submitted to a festival in Canada.

I think all that deserves a beer.
