A Novel Update

So I did it. Yes, yup, sort of can't believe it but it is true. I wrote a novel this month. Saturday afternoon at 1:32 pm, my word count for NaNoWriMo was validated at 50,050 words.



It feels amazing to have written so many words in such a short time. My novel isn't finished (not by any stretch of the imagination). Yet the bulk of it is out in its baby-step form and now I can edit and write, write and edit and fiddle and fuddle around with it.

And then see what comes next.

One thing that is coming next is a lovely month of improv holiday shows. Let It Snow: An Improvised Holiday Musical opened last night... if you live here in the Bay Area, come on by and see us for an evening (or Saturday matinee) of a classic Broadway-style musical created on the spot by the Un-Scripted Theater Company.

Is the show suitable for musical-loving kids (in the 5-7 age range)? I'd love to take them but want to make sure (a) they'd enjoy it and (b) the improv does stays clean and decent. Thanks.

It is a family show (by intention) and we have had kids in that age range come and enjoy (It is probably a bit long for anyone under 5). Because it is improv, sometimes things do slip out...but we try to stay aware and one of the advantages of a small theater is the performers know when kids are there. If you know when you'd like to come, send me an email, I can arrange kid-discount tix and also make sure you get seats down front. susan at un-scripted.com
