I'm Not Religious, But I Like God

You Become A Character In A Meta-drama Into Which Your Own Dramatizing Has Pitched You. The Rewards Can Be Fantastic, The Punishments Dismal; It's A Zero Sum Game, And Its Guarantor Of Value, Its Marker Is That You Pretend You Play It Solo, Preserving The Myth That You Alone Are The Wellspring Of Your Creativity.

There's A Way In Which 'the Illusion' Is A Play About The Theater.

It Isn't Easy, It Doesn't Count If It's Easy, It's The Hardest Thing. Forgiveness. Which Is Maybe Where Love And Justice Finally Meet.

Plays Can Outlast Even The Opinions Of The Chief Film Critic Of The New York Times And That Reviews, Although They Feel Devastating In The Immediate Moment, Are Not Remotely As Significant As The Significance You Endow Them With On The Day That They Appear.

If You're A Playwright, Unless You're Really Lacking In Get-up-and-go, You Can Always Get Your Play Up Somewhere. You Can't Necessarily Make A Living Doing It, But Theater Is About Meeting An Audience. Plays Are Not Easier To Write Necessarily, They Take Less Time To Write. If You Get Them Up, It's A Much More Rough-and-tumble Kind Of Existence. I Think It's, From My Perspective, Easier Than Novel Writing.
