  1. #5thingsWIP

    - The days on my alien species' home planet are ~60 hours long

    - Their eggs always hatch around dusk or dawn, giving the individual their moiety …

    - … because the first 30 hours shape their future development a lot.

    - it is in adolescence these differences become pronounced

    - The eggs need a certain fungi in the ground to survive, growing roots to do so. Sometimes two eggs in the same nursery intertwine, giving rise to their version of 'twins'

    I'll bite!

    1: Takes place in Ontario in 1976. Coffee shops are far and few between.

    2: The far north is flat out bush country. Like today.

    3: Weird research grant given to pretty, rich Masters student. Poor friend did all the work.

    4: There's a monster in the woods. And a boor in the house.

    5: Lack of social media (or even a phone line) makes everyone super reflective. Not all people are deep. But they are tasty.

  13. Not sure I'm doing this right (reminds me of playing "Big Blue Moon" on the band bus in college), but here's an attempt at a #5ThingsWIP:

    1. It's a novel adaptation of one of my plays
    2. It's also a reimagining of Lewis Carroll’s most famous work
    3. It takes place before, during, and after Alice's famous adventures
    4. There is no Alice in my Wonderland
    5. It's a story about sisters

    ☕️ A confrontation at a coffee shop.
    🥮 Spite ordering all the caramel rolls.
    🟩 A chartreuse blazer.
    ☠️ A curse.
    💨 Traveling on the breath of the wind.

  24. Jumping on the trend: Here are 5 things about my current work-in-progress.

    1. It's a horror play!

    2. There's a person-eating monster and a house burning down. Let the directors figure out how to do those on stage.

    3. Ghosts!

    4. Disabled lead!

    5. (Because it's actually about disability and COVID and how much people suck sometimes)

    3. Tensions arise
    4. What does home mean?
    5. I plan for a sequel.

  43. New play, 30 pages in...

    1. There's a play within a play
    2. The play within is an historical farce, based on a true story
    3. Lots of meta-theatrical nonsense
    4. Pulls apart the Aussie larrikin type/trope
    5. The other actors start to rebel against the lead

  47. it's actually for a personal card game project, but that counts as writing ... right? #5ThingsWIP
    1. it reverses something that is taken for granted in #netrunner
    2. contains traces of truth & a PhD thesis I read for fun (twice)
    3. no deaths, but it certainly escalates
    4. water is everywhere, but may not be central to the plot
    5. the famous person disappears immediately

  50. Let's see if I can make Vapormage sound interesting:

    1. The most powerful wizard around is an enby theater kid
    2. "War is a racket" is putting it mildly
    3. A guy rips a rabbit-demon out of his soul, applause follows, it is not a stage act
    4. "You're right, I don't need to be melodramatic. This is voluntary."
    5. Therapy sessions with gods

    1. Young magician who accidentally discovers that magic is real
    2. Much enjoyableness around theatres
    3. Sinister wizard based on an actual sinister wizard
    4. Writing magic in the real world meant I had to think about colonisation and change countries
    5. I don't know how it ends. Yet.
