This postFirst off, thanks for all the feedback on the magazine. My inbox is sagging at the seams with responses, overwhelmingly positive ones for the most part. The print edition should be ready for orders by the middle of next week, which’ll be nice because great as online stuff is, print is still so much more delectable. I’ll have more news on this later. And be sure to check out the news page (and RSS feed) on the Mormon Artist site itself, since, you know, that’s really where I ought to be announcing stuff about the magazine. :)
In other news, I’m back in classes for the first time in a year and a half — I’m taking Welsh and Playwriting, and they’re both a lot of fun so far. (Had to write a ten-page play by today. We got our titles and actors by random selection, mine being “Into the Oven” (one of the titles I’d suggested) with Denzel Washington, Angelina Jolie, and Zooey Deschanel starring in it. Hypothetically, of course. And I really shouldn’t say this on my blog, but I am gaga over Zooey. I try to keep my celebrity crushes to a minimum, since they’re effectively pointless, but yeah, Zooey’s so attractive it drives me crazy. And I’ll stop talking like a teenage girl now. :P)
And on a related note (to the playwriting, not to Zooey, though I sure wouldn’t mind talking more about her ;)), I’m directing a play (Ben Phelan’s “The Sword Without, and Terror Within”) for this next New Play Project set of shows. We had our directors’ meeting tonight and will be holding auditions next Tuesday and Thursday from 7–9pm each night in the HFAC. (Exact location to be determined. I’ll announce it again when we get closer.) And the shows will be performed in October. Fun times.
