Fiorella the Bard

Fiorella sent her full manuscript off to her editor last night at 9:43 pm and is now free to act like a human being until the revisions come in.

But she can't help but reflect on various aspects of her book, like why her heroine was a woman who had been hired by a small Texas town to direct its civic theater.  Probably because Fio has a fair amount of theater experience and knows people who can fill in the blanks.  But it also might be because, as an author, Fio is a director herself.  She sets up her characters and gives them roles to play, roles which they must stay true to in order to make the "play" come out right.

Every fiction writer is his own Shakespeare.  Think about it.
