I've got a number of them floating around at various levels of development ranging from one or two sentances describing a concept to actually having signifigant portions of the writing done. I'll post once I've got maybe three scenes done to the point where they're presentable.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17915186427167408768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024126.post-1110146750409598522005-03-06T17:05:00.000-05:002005-03-06T17:05:00.000-05:00I like the line too!

Perhaps later on down the track, when you've written some more, you could post some on your blog?Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03463367356012002271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024126.post-1110129392275663672005-03-06T12:16:00.000-05:002005-03-06T12:16:00.000-05:00Thanks for taking interest.

I've been pretty much writing it a few lines at a time, and deciding where it would go based on how my loose concept of each character would react.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17915186427167408768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024126.post-1110123256716258942005-03-06T10:34:00.000-05:002005-03-06T10:34:00.000-05:00So I guess the rest of the play would have to be r...So I guess the rest of the play would have to be resolving the question of does he or does he not stay a victim (doing crazy things to get her back and ultimately giving up on himself totally, which could make this a tragic-comedy kind of thing) or does he move beyond this and find out he's better without her, finds someone else, etc. (more of a romantic comedy)unless you intend some really dark thing to happen here, purely tragic I mean. I want to know more so keep writing.Presley Bennetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06384571851847578239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024126.post-1110089886783296002005-03-06T01:18:00.000-05:002005-03-06T01:18:00.000-05:00Makes sense.

I don't really think one needs context when looking at that specific line, but if you're at all interested, its in a scene where a man and a woman are going through a break-up and the woman comes to the man's apartment to get her spare key back. He's reluctant, and going through more than a bit of a self-pity trip and she accuses him (and rightfully so) of having a victim complex.<br /><br />As for the rest of the play, I really didn't plan out a plot for this one. For now I'm just letting it go where it will. I'll probably structure it after the fact.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17915186427167408768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024126.post-1110085002229672272005-03-05T23:56:00.000-05:002005-03-05T23:56:00.000-05:00take out the first "that" maybe? ok, enough editi...take out the first "that" maybe? ok, enough editing...and I don't even know what the play is about.Presley Bennetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06384571851847578239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024126.post-1110082329302202032005-03-05T23:12:00.000-05:002005-03-05T23:12:00.000-05:00Sweet!
