Re: Theodore/Hugh
I will let you have it back when I come to see your play, deal?
After Jamie died, Elaine wanted stories about him. About us, about our life together when she wasn't around. Our travels and the things we saw. Jamie was always the storyteller, not me. Bedtime stories, stories about places around town where he'd grown up and done and saw things with his mother. But I learned, I told her those stories, and when she went away to school that first year, I started writing them down. Only, I added her into them, because it only seemed natural. Made them more fictional, so she would have something new to read - stories she didn't know and hadn't lived. Before I knew it I had a book. It was never really anything I set out to do. Have you always wanted to act?
It's entirely up to you. There's nothing more nerve-wracking than taking your own work and putting it in someone else's hands. Whenever you're ready, if you ever are.
