65 and staying alive

In less than a week I will be a senior. Despite my general demeanor, I have been dreading this birthday. I don’t really know why. It’s just a number isn’t it? I was, earlier this year in a bit of ... in a deep depression. Not my style. We had a great time on Maui. I have been workshoping more than usual . I love my little Zozo so much that her smile lifts me into the sky.  Margie is well. What happened was that my Monologue book was rejected after more than a year of teasing by Talon. I couldn’t write. I was  stuck.

 

I’m never stuck or depressed for very long. I decided, based on some good advice from Rob Crowston, to build a new website. If you build it, they will come. Theatretogo.net has been a lifesaver. It has brought me a great deal of credibility.  I have decided to self-publish M&M and it is now being carried by Biz Books.. I will be work-shopping for ABCDE. This is huge!!!!! It will mean gigs all over the province. And lots of book sales. best of all I am writing again. 35 minutes and counting for My new 50 minute play The Runaways which I plan to present at Fringe 2011. I am going to NY and they will be presenting the first scene of”My Music” Right now, at 65, I am on top of my game.
