A New Year, A New Book
Firstly, I’d like to wish everyone a very Happy New Year! 2017
was a very important year for me, as it saw the publication of my monologue
book “Monologues They’ll Remember You By,” which I’m happy to report has so far
been a great success, finding its way into the hands of actors across the US , the UK ,
Canada , Australia and Continental
Europe.
It also saw the publication of my anthology of comedic short
plays, “Ten-Minute Plays: The Comedy Collection,” which is also proving to be very
popular, hitting the #1 spot for hot new releases on Amazon upon its release.
And 2018 promises to be another big year, as I’m currently
working on a brand new book which I hope to finish in the coming months. This
one’s a little different for me, as it will not be a book of my playwriting work
but a book about playwriting itself. It’s still in its formative stage, but
essentially I will be sharing insights and experience from my journey as a
playwright, offering advice, tips, and all manner of useful information I’ve
gleaned over the years – some of it hard-won – for the benefit of anyone who
might be interested in becoming a playwright but who finds the whole world of dramatic
writing and play production/marketing all rather daunting.
Less, then, a book about the writing of plays themselves (though
there will be plenty of information on that, too), and more a book about navigating
the world of the playwright from the perspective of someone who’s been in the
trenches for quite some time now.
