Started off stressing about finances with Christmas coming up, and cashflow etc, but all sorted by the end of the day. I also received notification that one of my plays has now been picked up by an english group! They will be performing it twice next year, and having done a little research, it would seem that they will be entering it into festivals. This pleases me no end, as it was what it was originally written for. It would also seem that the performances in the American schools are being done as part of their exams. I always wondered what kind of strange crazy mixed up country it was, but this just confirms it. When the royalty cheque comes in, it will hardly be a fortune, but it will certainly pay for a nice night out or two. I want to keep it separate just to enjoy it! I have at least two, maybe three more plays that are at a publishable level in terms of my publisher, but there are some edits to do and some formatting issues. I will spend a few days trying to get on top of that over Christmas. If I can get between ten and twenty plays out there in the next year, then i think I can start to really enjoy it all. It's been a funny old week as far as work is concerned. I have felt a little detached from it all, and in need of the rest. We have a good weekend to look forward to though with the annual Christmas bash. I have not attended for the last two years, so it will be good to be there again. I think the mood and atmosphere will be somewhere near what it used to be.
