  2. Haven’t We Always Been Friends?

    Aristotle drew a ladder. I drew a circle. A scheming actor asked to climb, and I answered with a question built to end the conversation. Years ago, in a rehearsal room that smelled of coffee and radiator dust, an actor I will call Curtis said six words I have retold wrong for decades: "I want to be your friend." We had known each other three years by then. We had built shows together, struck sets at midnight, shared the particular intimacy of people who fail in front of each other at ten in the morning and repair it by eight that night. His sentence cornered me. I laughed a little, the way you laugh when you need two seconds to find a door, and I said, "Curtis, haven't we always been friends?" […]

  8. “Jealousy Went Viral” – Poetcore Shakespeare: The Bard for Gen Z

    (T.A.E.’s LitBites) – A modern retelling of Othello by William Shakespeare Othello is basically the story of what happens when one person’s trust gets hacked by someone who is obsessed with chaos. It starts in Venice, where Othello, a respected Black military leader, has secretly married Desdemona, the daughter of a wealthy senator named Brabantio. That alone sets off drama, because their relationship does not fit the social rules of the time. When Brabantio finds out, he is furious […]

    Now that I’ve put it away, they’re gone.
