I want to give the audience a hint of a scene. No more than that. Give them too much and they won’t contribute anything themselves. Give them just a suggestion and you get them working with you. That’s what gives the theater meaning: when it becomes a social act. Orson Welles
Your purpose is to make your audience see what you saw, hear what you heard, feel what you felt. Relevant detail, couched in concrete, colorful language, is the best way to recreate the incident as it happened and to picture it for the audience.

I joined my local library today. First time I was there since High School. It was so nice. Such a great vibe. People behaving themselves, not shouting like carnival barkers like here on the web. I hope that libraries stick around. They are really important to society. I mean you would think it’s a given that society would get this. I hope so because I’m going to spend a lot more time at my local library.
It’s funny there is always a big debate about comment sections. Some are into them some aren’t. Then the dreaded anonymous commenter. Oh dear. All I know is that this site has some pretty cool smart people having laughs, breaking balls a bit. I don’t know what the big deal is with all this crap. I just think it’s more fun with them on.
