Today we started talking about absurdist drama in playwriting class...which is a genre that I love and influences my writing a lot...which probably explains my craziness a bit. Our exercise in class was to write a concept for an absurdist play...and my group came up with a thing about three people digging holes which was a metaphor for different methods for accepting change. Awesome.
I need to finish my play this weekend!

"Because of John Fuchas and his Poodle film?"
The old man cracked out laughing. "Poodle film?" he spluttered. "Well, it's gunna be a bit more spectacular than just a little doggy movie, Miss Kapoor. It's gunna be years in the making. That John Fuchas is a genius, that boy. "
