'tis April and spring. Surely a young man's fancy turns to things other than plays - mayhap that is what has happened to thy Laval or Mount Royal producers. Their heads are filled with fancy and thus they cannot think straight. I have trudged that's trudge-ed) the streets of London to speak to these merchants of theatre.<BR/><BR/>Of they reply: "Nay! 'tis not the season. Forsooth hath we not told thee that teenage love is out, this season." What hurteth me the most, was the rejection of my idea of a Scottish man- who was three potatoes short of a pancake - trying to claim the throne of Scotland. Yea! I didst throw in a couple of 'och ayes', and Macs to add authenticity. <BR/><BR/> These Phillistines, these cohorts of hell's minions had the temerity to say: "Master Will, thy effort would be laugh-ed out of Glasgow and Edinburgh and no true Englishman would want to see anothe regal takeover, given what this wench Mary tried to do to our good Queen Bess. Nay! Master Will, write thee a play perhaps of Good King Henry - the eight of them, or put thy quill to poetry, it is, forsooth, a wench magnet."<BR/><BR/>Ah! one could go on all the livelong day about the frustration of writing good drama. Mayhap I quit England and hie to France or Italy.<BR/>Please keep me informed as to thy endeavours<BR/><BR/>Fondly<BR/>WillieAl1801https://www.blogger.com/profile/14179158494574509118noreply@blogger.com
