So I've been talking with a good friend of mine and we've been discussing about possibly adapting a play I wrote a while ago into a musical. But I'm having a difficult time getting my thoughts together. If only there was an instructional video somewhere online to help me out... Hmm...
Oh! Thank god! I would never have thought of coming up with a "story", and it was very helpful to realize that a character who feels depressed can sometimes turn out hopeful in the end. What is the technical term for that? I also didn't realize that I would "need to create music" in order to write a musical. Thank you, lady-musician-and-performance-instructor-who-taped-this-mere-blocks-away-from-Broadway. You certainly seem qualified to give helpful advice on the craft of writing and musical composition. Thank you.

Three Minute Fiction
After a summer hiatus, one of my favorite writing competitions is back on! NPR's Three Minute Fiction contest has always been fun to listen to and read. I think this year I'm going to submit something myself. I'll post my submission once I've finished. If you want to try your hand, you can find out everything you need to know at the npr website. Check out some of the earlier winners and runner ups. It's a great contest, but what are you doing reading this? Get writing!
