Talking of theatre (dear boy), I had a stab at a stage play recently for my OU course. A short one obviously. I'll try and post it somewhere.
My tutor told me I had an ability for writing dark comedy about dysfunctional relationships. Now I don't know s**t about relationships, dysfunctional or otherwise, so I guess I must have a decent imagination or good observation skills. The old cliche - write what you know - doesn't necessarily hold water. I mean Stephen King has probably never met a vampire, a ghost or a serial killer but it doesn't stop him churning out books about 'em. Likewise JK Rowling didn't go to Hogwarts and John Grisham... oh well I'll let that one go.
