I've always been a theater nerd but I never tried playwriting until the end of last year. My first full one-act play is a finalist in a competition in my area, and we're putting it on this summer!

The spooky part is I'm also directing it, but that somehow sounds less daunting than writing it. We'll see what happens :scared:

Congratulations! That's really exciting... I'd be terrified of the directing part thought Ha ha. I'm no good at telling people what to do ;)

Congratz!!!

You'll be fine - I wrote and directed a play (many years ago), and trust me (as the writer), nobody knows your characters better than you, so who better to "direct" their actions than you too? :e2Order:

Best wishes, and keep us posted.
