I have laundered London out of all of my clothes and am weirdly sad about it.

Cobblestones are good for aesthetics and not much else.
Itβs fine. Itβs just a scene that has been causing me angst for months. Weβre fine. #playwrightslife #amwriting

Failure hits in weird ways sometimes.
I love a great name. One of my favorite things about watching the Olympics is being introduced to athletes with fantastic names. Today's gold medal example: Breezy Johnson.
My wee book of plays is garnering the attention of book club scammers. I feel like I've arrived. #playwrightlife
I see you, 2026. Letβs make some art.

Very cool. Thanks!
Happy Jane Austen Day! My 6-part audio adaptation of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE is available on dramafy.com for anyone who is interested.

I was SUPER pleased with this! I saw a performance of @mleilani.bsky.social's Persuasion script as an undergrad and it's informed my criteria for a Good Adaptation ever since
Thank you so much for coming!! Iβm so glad you enjoyed it. ππΊ
Some days the best way to get yourself to work is to have a really nice pen. #amwriting
Oh yes. Eric and Troy are a must.
One of the best ever! But βIndians in the Lobbyβ is pretty great, too.
Meryl is great! Do you want a hint? πClaire Danes is in there too, and Laura Linney. Hope Davis is a Burns regular, but I havenβt recognized her yet. I know Amanda Gorman is reading for Phyllis Wheatley, which is awesome. Oh! And Kenneth Branagh and Josh Brolin.
Thanks! Agreed. I do enjoy it.
Is adaptation my gig now? Two potential commissions are for adaptations β one of a living authorβs work (this is new) and one is a classic. Yay! But also β my original stuff does not suck. Much. FWIW, Iβm not complaining. Just musing.
Woohoo! Enjoy!
Update! The theatre will have an in-person waitlist each night at the box office, as there are some no-shows. Also, people with tickets do cancel, so if you check the website, things can open up! I checked this morning and there are a few new openings for this weekend. www.tix.com/ticket-sales...
Hello Theodore! That's kind of you to say. It would be great to enjoy some positive conversations online! Hope your day is great.
Woohoo! There is a ticket giveaway you can enter. Text CPT to 78619. ππΊ
Introverts aspiring to be social. Nothing more real than that.
30th anniversary #SenseAndSensibility cinema tickets acquired for the evening of December 16, Jane Austenβs 250th birthday.
I canβt go to my adaptation of #PrideAndPrejudice that night because it sold out before opening. This is a good problem to have.
Apologies β Burns co-directed alongside Sarah Botstein and David P. Schmidt. My bad!
Identifying the voice actors in a Ken Burns documentary is one of my favorite games, and #AmericanRevolution has a fantastic cast. Fun fun fun!
I'm spending Saturday night scouring the interwebs for vintage stained glass Christmas cards as one does when one should be writing... #playwrightlife
What a stunning fall morning. Letβs all use it to vote.
Sometimes all you can do is eat pizza.
