I've
neglected the play for a week now. Today, I got a little bit scared
about that. What if the momentum has gone? What if this is yet another
of my ideas that comes to nothing? What if these characters I've been
calling down from The Forever have moved on?
I was about to leave the cafe today but thought no, I have to find out if these characters are still there, so I sat down in my quiet and empty cafe, and I called out to them.
Silence.
Silence.
And silence.
And then, eventually, they were there.
The first thing they said to me was, Where the fuck have you been for the past week?
I told them I was sorry and that I have missed them. They said they had missed me too. Then we got to work, and they said dramatic and witty things to each other, and I took dictation, and all was good in my world.
