Hi there, I came across these forums about a week ago and have been avidly reading your work, poring over your suggestions, and generally absorbing the great wealth of experience you guys so generously share. Thank you already for everything you have taught me.
I'm new to playwriting, although I have dabbled with the pen before, it's been a very sporadic thing throughout my life. Mostly I'm lazy and don't like to put in the hard graft, but over a period of time the voices in my head get louder and louder and the only way to contain them is to trap them on paper.
My present stint at writing seems to be bearing fruit and the voices in my head have been kind and are leaping onto the page for me, so I'm hoping to keep this up and I'd like to get a few things produced before too long. I realise I'm nowhere near as talented as most of you but I'd like to hang around and hope some of your magic rubs off on me.
If you're not too bored already I have a wee website with my stuff on, now that I've looked at yours it's only fair to offer you mine. It's at http://www.crabbit.com.

Hey, Crabbit!
I went to your wee website right after you joined us to make sure you were not an evil spammer bot. I enjoyed your site and discovered that I, too, am a crabbit.
Welcome, to The Playwrights' Forum!

Thank you Edd, I appreciate the welcome. Yes, I wasn't sure about adding a link in my very first post so I'm glad you took the time to check it out. You're probably the first visitor I've ever had (the visitor count has benn "clocked" so it doesn't look so bad).
I've just read the Green Room interview with Gary Garrison, very good! I could get used to this.

Welcome, Crabbit.
I suppose I'll have to find out what that is.
Nice to have you here.

Welcome Carbbit.
I think I know a lot of crabbits. In fact, I think I are one.
I wonder if crabbits will be hopping around carrying Easter eggs soon? Or maybe that's the crunny's.

Crabbit,
Are you by any chance the author of the book Howling Rabbit, which was written by a multiple personality??? You sound like one of Us. This is the place: Lots of Multiples on here. I'm the only Integrated Multiple on here.
The poem about the dog abandoned in the car seat made me feel guilty. I do that to Arthur.
How could the author of Undead Theatre write Anniversary?

Crabbit Rabbit has a great ring to it, I might have to use that somewhere :¬)
Sorry Will Kemp, I'm not the author you are thinking of although I certainly often feel I have multiple personalities (doesn't everyone?)
"How could the author of Undead Theatre write Anniversary?"
That question raises a lot more questions. Every time I read it I wonder what you mean; do you mean simply that the styles are so different? Or are you saying one is good and the other is rot? If so which one? I suppose this is falling into the Critique my Play catagory, but I will say this: Undead Theatre is my usual style/genre, but one day I got some bad news and my wife was great, she was very supportive and helped me through. I wondered what it would be like if I didnt have her and that's when I wrote Anniversary.

| I see. . .they seemed like plays from different genres. I was only joking about the other item -- the author of Howling Rabbit really was a multiple personality, and this person with many voices wrote the book. It sort og reminded me of playwriting, a little.
