  We make ego into a bad word but try excelling without it. That tension between control and out-of-control? That's magic! -- doug smith

Get bold or get forgotten! Who's your favorite actor? What performer grabs your attention? When you are on stage where is YOUR focus? There is a place for nuance. There is a time for subtlety. And, there is a time for drama! Get bold or get forgotten! -- doug smith

Reading someone's descriptive intro of themselves a while ago I remember that they said they were a poet and a memoirist. Hmmm. How do they live? How do they earn money? Are they so successful with social media ad dollars (or something else?) that jobs are even a consideration? Far be it for me to judge but seriously, doesn't it take a large swallow of solipsistic hubris to declare oneself a memoirist? Oh, truthfully, everyone SHOULD be a memoirist and keep some kind of journal (says the man on volume 63 of his) but to announce it to the world? Maybe, yes! Good for her! What do you think is IN those memoirs? Juicy stuff? Dramatic stuff? Profound stuff? That's the topic of your scene: now improv it! -- doug smith
