    5 Things I learned from writing a play every day in February

    This year, as with every year, I made a New Year’s resolution to write “more.” Whatever that means. The best way to do this, of course, is to actually write more. Write every day. It’s that simple, and that complicated. But if you want to be a writer, that’s what…

    When the resolution goes astray

    My plan to finish a full-length play went a little off course, but in the service of another creative project.

      If you don’t believe, can you still get peanut-butter eggs? Easter is a holiday that, for a long time, never felt like it counted. It’s always on a Sunday, involves lots of chocolate and jelly beans and has such a strong Christian message to it that if you’re not…
