HOLY GOODNESS, people, I am back.

It has been years since I used this site, but I feel like it's about time I came back. I deleted some of the old stuff, and I will be uploading some new things that I am very excited about.

Currently, I am embroiled in a total overhaul rewrite of my play The Life and Times of Cicero Williams, a play I have been considering since way back when I was a wee bitty fourteen year-old. It stuck in my head, and I spent so much time with the characters that I took on one of them as a screen name, and he wasn't even originally supposed to be the protagonist! I ended up writing the play three years later, in my senior year, and while I was pleased with it at the time, after a while I realized there was so much more I wanted to do with the characters, so many more stories and situations they could be in. It seemed rather... raw. Not as in hardcore, but more like uncooked. Anyway, I finally got around to working on a rewrite, and I'm excited. It's turning out nicely.

Anyway, come back, and I'll have more up soon!

13. The Life and Times of Cicero Williams » reviews
Ladies and gentlemen, here it is: the play that I have been kicking around for four years, the one that gave me my pen name. It should be 10 minutes 3 scenes , so it may be a bit too short, but this is how it is. T for mild language, but not offensive.
