Freelance Writing

Tue, 14 Feb 2012 01:35:47 +0800

What should you know about playwriting, especially freelance writing.
Don't believe anyone who says it's easy to do. It is the same job as all others, you have to take it seriously, with all the responsibility. If you heard that essay writers earn money for doing nothing, you've heard the lie.

WAYTCo and the City of Perth present EARTH by Jeffrey Jay Fowler

Mon, 05 Dec 2011 15:05:05 +0800

Review: Robin Pascoe in The West Australian Monday December 5th 2011

Eight young people in vivid red tracksuits march onto and off-white square of carpet and sharply draw in breath as they eyeball the audience. The WA Theatre Company’s first production in an Earth, Wind and Fire trilogy announced its intentions with humour mixed with wry self-referential directness.

Previewing November 25th at the Blue Room - EARTH features a cast of eight amazingly talented performers in a play devised by the cast and written and directed by Jeffrey Jay Fowler

A Boring Couple on a Boring Night.

Thu, 03 Nov 2011 23:44:03 +0800

This is another scene written for the fun of writing. The characters, Freya and Timothy have been together for a long time and are used to the irritation that they cause each other. Freya has a very important meeting in the morning. She has to explain in front of the management committee the new phone system and software that the whole organisation is going to transfer to. She is hungry but has more important things to worry about. She really just wants Timothy to leave her alone. Timothy has worked all day pulling up a busy road and repaving it but has come home and seen the house is a mess. He has people coming around tomorrow night and so wants the place to be decent. He's quite hungry and knows that Freya finished work early today so isn't sure why she hasn't prepared anything. He isn't sure what to do with himself and thinks he would like some attention and affection from Freya but he knows he doesn't want to be stuck listening to her talk about work stuff.

A gambling loss

(KIRSTY is packing clothes and toiletries into a couple of canvas bags in her bedroom. She is crying angrily and stops to wipe the tears, that are affecting her sight, off her face. There is a knock on the door. She starts, takes a deep breath then answers it. PETER is standing in the doorway with a huge grin on his face, holding a slip of paper.)
