A WhatsApp message from my director reading: 2 ladies grabbed me at the bar because they needed to know what actually happened. They had some lovely comments like โ€œNormally I think theatreโ€™s a bit cringe, but I fucking loved thatโ€ and โ€œThat was better than Miss Saigon!โ€

A writer much more experienced than myself once told me โ€œit comes in seasonsโ€

Weโ€™re all going mad, having good days, then going mad again ๐Ÿฉท

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ godspeed they make some changes. Backstage In Biscuitland has stayed with me after 10 years and itโ€™s sickening to think that may artists such as yourself are basically unable to make work (especially work as impactful and important as BIB) under the current conditions

The final Cottingley Fairy photo. This one is supposed to be maintained as real. Again, very clearly paper cutouts. If you go look at the wikipedia  page about it you can even see the original drawing from the book they were from.

Whenever people gush over AI I'm going to think about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle being utterly convinced that he'd discovered real scientific evidence of real fairies because he saw these pictures

ANGEL: Hey boss, we got a disillusioned gay kid who needs strength, a grieving widow searching for hope, and a dying man wondering if the live heโ€™s lived is one he can be proud of.

G DAWG: Um, excuse me?? Canโ€™t you see Iโ€™m busy hooking my girl Patricia up with Taylor Swift tickets?!?!

I have also put a big dog in it.

It is a theatre script and I definitely will not be allowed to have a big dog in it. But Iโ€™m putting a big dog in it anyway because itโ€™s ominous. Fuck you.

being a writer is so funny bc what do you mean 48 hours ago I was literally having a breakdown and questioning my entire career choice over a piece of work, and now Iโ€™m having to convince myself to go to bed instead of continuing work on it bc Iโ€™m having fun writing it again

Image shows a medieval king in a green gown and wearing a crown. He is stood within a burning castle with arms in the air and a look of 'oh dear' on his face

cover painting for 'The Visitors' by Clifford D Simak

a pair of tiny figures stand on a hillside while a gigantic black obelisk floats overhead 

the figures are captioned 'chatting on the timeline with your friend' and the menacing obelisk is captioned 'a total stranger about to drop the worst reply you've ever read
