I've had over fifty plays and musicals published over the years, mostly on Lazy Bee Scripts, but also on Eldridge and Playscripts. It's a wonderful job/hobby/career and I have no reason to complain. I've had tons of shows produced all over the world. There are at least ten thousand playwrights who would love to be in my shoes.

My only real complaint is that I wrote and produced a musical called Lotta Crabtree which has gathered a lot more dust than royalties over the years. There are a lot of shows, including some of mine, which deserve all the layers of dust they get. But not Lotta Crabtree. It is probably the best show I ever put together. Fun characters, good songs, a very nice little plot. But there she sits at the sophomore hop without being asked to dance once.

Maybe it's the title. Crabtree is not a very pretty name. It's alway hard to know. Anyway, it would be nice if someone gave her a whirl. She might become the love of your life. You can peruse her for free here:
