Since I wrote a post on my own site. Bad author. I would love to say it’s been because I’ve been so busy getting the next set of stories out, that I haven’t had the time. But that would be a lie. Oh, I’ve been working. And there are stories, but not ready for publishing […]
THANK YOU. I owe you my sincerest gratitude to everyone who has already bought a copy, told a friend about it, or liked/shared/commented on one of my announcements. I don’t want to exhaust anyone with too much news, but it’s been a much better book release day than I could have hoped or imagined. Your […]

Nearly every theatrical organization I can think of, for-profit or non-, devotes at least a portion of its efforts to theatrical education. Some more, some less; a few are even good at it. On the other hand, public schools are cutting back (and have for decades now) on arts education with the excuse that it’s […]
