I write life as I hear it in my head, often tackling issues I sense society is percolating on. I’m curious. When I smell a story, I begin to chart it. If it’s more than a scene, I start digging and planting those magic beans that lead to the giants of surprise and sadness, delight and disgust. Once I give a character a name and a purpose, I’m often surprised at what they divulge to me, and I write it down. And curious modern plays are born.
