A play I wrote, "The Atheist" has just picked up the people's choice award at it's heat in the Sydney Short and Sweet and now it gets to go through to a people's choice showcase in March. If it wins there it could go on to the gala final. I am so excited.
If you're going to be in Sydney in March you could see it. If you wanted.
Ah! So excited and proud and things.
I feel strange, because I wrote it so long ago. Like somehow it was someone else who wrote it, and they deserve the credit. Or more accurately it is as though something I created is now alive and sentient and has gone off and grown up and now it's won two things.
I am eternally grateful to the guys who have been performing it every night. Joe and John have brought my silly words to life and flown to Sydney and spent money and rehearsed and learnt lines and run around and sweated and done the actual hard yards. But still, I am so chuffed.
What is most exciting is that it makes me want to write more stuff.
