And so it begins.

And thus concludes my 14/48 virginity. I'm honored and delighted to be in fine and talented company, and looking forward to a whirlwind weekend, keeping y'all abreast of the play-by-play.

ToJ is filling with bleary-eyed and smiling writers and directors, most with coffee in hand of course. Lots of foot tapping going on, folks chomping at the bit to go go go.

I'm hearing a lot of, "How'd the writing go?" "...Am. Tired. Am done." "Your play any good?" "...Yes. Yes ,I think so."

The drawing of director/playwright pairings begins very shortly. Stay tuned.
