“May your Hurts turn to Healing; Your Heart embrace Feeling. May Wounds become Wisdom; Every Kindness a Prism. May Laughter infect you; Your Passion resurrect you. May Goodness inspire your Deepest Desires. Through all that you Reach For, May your arms Never Tire.” D. Simone

"The work of the eyes is done. Go now and do the heart-work on the images imprisoned within you." Rainer Maria Rilke AND WRITE

Happy Hanukah to all who celebrate! 🕎✡️

write...

Write.

"Tell your story. Shout it. Write it. Whisper it... But tell it. Some won't understand it. Some will outright reject it. But many will thank you for it. And then the most magical thing will happen. One by one, voices will start whispering, 'Me, too.' And your tribe will gather." L.R. Knost

Some plays, however short, hurt like hell to write. Got the first draft of "Nana's Last Jam" done. Managed to leaven the sorrow with some comedy. A little haggis can go far to temper tragedy. Or so I hope.

Looking forward to this conversation on Dec 11 following the performance of 'Diversion' by the Barrow Group!

This sale is on through 12/9...paid subscribers get access to private silent writing space and support the writing both. Once enough subscribers also a yoga class...

So happy to meet up Friday night with my @SperanzaTheatre Women Playwrights Circle in person at Seasonal Shorts.

Welllll - turns out it's been a couple of months since I posted on Substack or Medium. Here's this one about Art and Quality and Ambition. Again. The #podcast version it features a cover of "Good Ambition" emilyrainbowdavis.medium.com/what-im-real...

“Life meanders like a path through the woods. We have seasons when we flourish and seasons when the leaves fall from us, revealing our bare bones. Given time, they grow again.” Katherine May - Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times, 2020.

"Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in your joints and very shabby. But these things don’t matter at all..." Margery Williams -The Velveteen Rabbit, 1922.

Producing and performing the works of Sir Tom Stoppard employed thousands and thousands of theater artists around the world for many decades. This will continue. (I see the role of “playwright” in the theater environs as artistic job creator.)

It's been a while since I've posted an original song with the blogcast. But the right song for this one was one I wrote myself almost twenty years ago! This is an acting themed #podcast. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...

"Looking across a desert panorama calms interior noise. The wide open space just shuts down the chatter. Then the impt stuff comes through. No static in the scenery. The eye can rest and therefore, the heart." - Psychology Today. See new trailer for Desert Reckoning. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5_S...

Getting new headshots taken got me asking myself some questions. artiststruggle.wordpress.com/2025/11/25/m...

"You'll learn, as you get older, that rules are made to be broken. Be bold enough to live life on your terms. Go against the grain, refuse to conform, take the road less traveled instead of the well-beaten path. Dance as though EVERYBODY is watching. And stubbornly refuse to fit in." Mandy Hale

"i still want the theatre industry to change for the better and not just say they took an anti-rascist and anti-ableist seminar sometime between 2020-2022 and did next to nothing abt it except actively ignore how public health is public and not optional, and that accessibility means for all."

Yay! Honor Roll has a new website! Give it a twirl! www.honorrollplaywrights.org

Rumor has it that we, the awesome women of Honor Roll, will be meeting again, in person, soon... stay tuned🌸
