We had our closing performance of the show -- Lost and Found -- tonight. The house was more full than it had been for any of the other five performances, and the audience was great -- very receptive, they laughed a lot, and overall it was just an amazing ...
Great post on Segullah by Chris Bigelow entitled Mormon Literature: Carving Out a Middle Niche?
Piddling around with Mormon niche markets is okay, as far as it goes (which isn’t far). But for me, the real holy grail of Mormon literature would be for a Mormon author to break ...
We survived opening night! The show is the reason I've hardly blogged on here lately, and it'll probably be that way for the next few days. In the meantime, though, here are some quick thoughts I've had on my playwriting.
Thus far, my dialogue tends to be mostly "It's ...
New Play Project's Lost & Found show opens this week, featuring seven short plays on religious themes, and it's going to be good. :) Yes, yes, I'm biased (I wrote one of the plays, Safe and Sound, and I'm assistant directing another, Prodigal Son), but it really will ...

How do I write? Spurts (squeezed out by deadlines) have been most common for me, but I agree with David that a regular, set time each day is ...
In commenting on David Hulet's post on the recent BYU writing salon, I realized the topic was something I wanted to write about some more.

On Tuesday we had a joint New Play Project workshop with the BYU group Write2Publish (which went really well!), and while there I found out about the upcoming Publishers Fair. It's on April 9 (two weeks from yesterday) from noon to 5 p.m. in the Wilkinson Center Garden Court. ...
