Golden Globes - It's the WRITING

Jessica Lange, BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS in a TV show, AMERICAN HORROR STORY. In her acceptance last evening Ms. Lange said "it's more and more rare to come up with something that is beautifully written."

Jack Grapes on OUR TOWN at the 
Broad Stage in Santa Monica: 


"It was writing that allowed the actors to be so good, 
it was the writing that invited the ingenuity of the director,
it was the writing that brought us all to something transcendant.

God knows,  I've seen that play a dozen times,
saw it with josh when he was 16,
saw it at a friend of his's high school,
saw it somewhere else can't remember.
high schools do it 'cause it's not only cheap and easy to stage,
but it's so easily written,
even kids shine in it,  and when they play,
the older people,  it's charming,  but it always works.,

There's Beckett and O'Neil and Pinter and Williams, but this play,
so almost old fashioned and quaint,
is so timeless and so beautifully written you hardly realize someone,
is cutting you with a razor blade."

The Move back to Los Angeles


April 23, 2010

I can't believe it. I have boxes, and I am using a tape gun. I didn't think it would happen so soon. So soon? I've been in Newport Beach for four years, and it's time to move back to LA. I packed my closet today. Well, the accessories. Oh God, I have so much stuff. While I was packing accessories, Michelle was getting her Yoga blog going. Check her out: Michelle McKAY YOGA. She teaches regularly at Yogaworks. And I'm trying to write and I'm trying to figure out who I should send my work out to and I'm reading Charles Bukowski who says and I quote: "sell as little as possible, save what you can. it's when you give it all to them that you are dead. don't be in a hurry to make it. it's more important to sit around in the sunlight or sleep. it will come along if you let it." Grounding advice. I wish I could be so confident. Here is a photo of my patent leather Prada shoes. Time to kick up my heels.
