I'll Never Be August Wilson - But

I Always Say That I'm A Writer Who Writes More From Place Than Race.

Sometimes, Unfortunately, Hatred Is More Powerful Than Progress.

I've Had Frank Conversations With Theaters Who Say, 'we Love Your Play, But We've Already Done A Play By Another Black Person This Year,' Or 'i Don't Think The Kind Of People You Write About Are The Ones Our Audience Wants To See'... Up And Coming Young Black Female Writers Are Still Struggling To Have Their Voices Heard And Have Their Plays Produced.

Cultivating Relationships With People Who've Achieved What You Want To Achieve Makes The Path Fuller And More Fun. You Don't Know Everything, And That Is So Okay, Because There Are Many People Who Want To Help You Along Your Journey. I Used To Think People Above Me Might Get Jealous Because I Wanted To Do What They Did. But No, People Are Much Nicer Than That.

Unlike Films, Which Can Be Easily Disseminated Worldwide Via Dvds And The Internet, Plays Struggle To Find An International Audience.
