Friends, A number of you have PM'd me regarding where you might find examples of my work. I thank you for your interest. Only one of my plays is still in print, you can find it here... www.dramabookshop.com/search/site/raising%20sheep%20in%20vermont or at Amazon.com. Most of my literary output has been "ghostwriting" for other authors. I have non-disclosure agreements with most of them, meaning I agreed not to indicate that my services were utilized. Currently, I am working on a piece for "The Paris Review", an interview with a young author. I will more than likely use a pseudonym in the by-line. I don't care for attention, so the way I do my writing suits me. Kind Regards, |

I guess I used the wrong thought.
I was trying to praise you on your decision to keep your identity apart from your career.
Keep up the good work

Looked at the link...which one is your work top or bottom (of the two)?
Writing is an art...I used to write term papers in college for the word deficient students.
Or perhaps, less verbose.

I am always pleased to learn of the accomplishments of our fellows here. Makes me feel I am with the right crowd instead of my usual bunch-- you know, Pool Room Loafers, Hubcap Thieves, and other assorted Delinquents... I bet you even iron your shirts! |

 Drama writing to me is a skill that I wish I could do, I have so many stories told by my Cajun family and friends that will die with me. You’re a special person in my eyes and I applaud you for it.
