Penning Ideas

I have had the idea over the past while to begin to draft a play. After an incredible experience performing in a play called 'Gutted' at Edinburgh Fringe - I've decided there's no time like the present to start making my idea a reality.
If you have a good idea for a play / poem / or song I feel it is important to pen it down. I have always been a keen creative writer, however, I have never written a play before. I'm not quite sure how to tackle it - but I know I have plenty of friends and acquaintances who would happily read drafts and offer me advice.
Edinburgh Fringe was so inspiring - so many creatives in the one bubble, it was an actor's playground - that I feel I have to channel that inspiration somehow now that I am back in London.
I have no set time limit to complete my project - it may take one week to complete one draft - or one year. Who knows. Scratch nights aren't going anywhere anytime soon so I figured - once I do have a decent shape to my work (and potentially actors who would be passionate to perform the work with me) I can always showcase the play then.


Here's to writing... That's my Saturday night sorted. Living on the wild side I am.
