I talk a lot about how rules of writing aren't rules, they're guidelines. Important to note, those guidelines change over time. Just as language evolves, so does storytelling, and advice that is salient now doesn't necessarily apply to earlier works written for different audiences. The rules change.

What Queer activism of the 70s/80s teaches about our response to Trump.
Direct action and confrontation works.
Queer citizens have to be out and vocal.
We can’t afford to worry about being “respectable”.
Educating other Americans about who we really are is vital.

Had a handful of homophobic/transphobic messages here today because I’ve created a Starter Pack supporting LGBTQIA+ writers.

Please follow and share this pack to help keep Bluesky the positive place it promises to be.

Theatre books which I refer to frequently when making work;

7. The Field of Drama - Martin Esslin

Short and very readable - Esslin lays out the range of ‘signs’ by which an audience ‘reads’ a performance. It’s also a handy check list of all the elements a playwright can use when writing a play.

Eventually you have to accept that no matter how many different notebooks you buy, they won’t make you a better writer. For that, you need to spend a lot of money on the right pen.

A very short monologue I wrote about the Irish Civil War was recorded by Green Curtain Theatre. It was quite a challenge as you only had 300 words to play with!
