American Theatre’s Podcast, The Subtext, put out a call last week for playwrights to call in and leave messages on a voicemail. The idea was to check in, tell others how you’re doing, if and what you’re writing.
Since I’m writing something right now (actually two comedies), I called. I talked into the void, wondering if I was being silly, or egotistic, or something else.
Well, the podcast has been published, and it is strangely comforting and uplifting. So many talented artists whom I know from their work, or from Twitter … and now I got to hear their actual voices! It’s terrific. And I’m grateful to Brian James Polak for the opportunity.
