One Act Play

So I have finished a One Act Play.

It is approximately 28 pages long, and I think it could fit comfortably in the minute-a-page bracket, though wavering from time to time. A lot of it is stage direction, and in places I feel like I'm leading my actor's around by the hand, but... there it is. The barebones.

Now, who want's to take part in a reading of it? I have 6 characters. 4 of which can double up when needed.

Any takers?

New Update

The Countdown page has been adjusted to mark the progress of a one act play I am writing. It involves an elevator and the interactions therein, with one underlying slightly fanciful theme.

Time Travel. Mwhuahaha.

So far, I have completed 14 pages of formatted text. I'm hoping to double that and it wouldbe complete, because this is an exercise more in succint content and not length. So. As opposed to pumping out a sheer volume of words this month, my attempt will be to try to be subtle with dialogue, make easy blocking and stage direction, and keep everything neatly formatted for submission into contests that I find.

Wish me luck! Your support in December pushed me through! Your belief in me made ME believe!

Friends

It is always when you are at your worst that your friends show you that they are the best. They make you laugh, feed you, cheer you up and throw you into that pleasant warmth of nostalgia. They remind you that things wil and can only get better from here on in, and they remind you that they will be there to lend a hand if they can. Even if they cannot be your crutch, they will be your constant cheerleader, rooting for you through the harsh little microcosmic shit-holes you have dug for yourself!

So raise a glass, cup of coffee, mug of tea, flute of champagne or can of soda to all of those people who have been there for you. Give a toast to yur dearest friends, and smile. Because it can only go up from here.
