I'm not talking about anybody "famous" just within the general BWW population. I'm not sure if this thread has already been done because it's a hard one to search...
I myself write plays and lyrics.

Posted: 6/19/05 at 7:15pmI'm a lyricists and you could kinda say I'm famous at least scool wise cause I write lyrics for my chorus class sometimes.
I'm not a gay stereotype. I'm a coincidence.

Posted: 6/19/05 at 8:10pmSpecifically, I'm a poet/aspiring lyricist and playwright.
I don't WANT to live in what they call "a certain way." In the first place I'd be no good at it and besides that I don't want to be identified with any one class of people. I want to live every whichway, among all kinds---and know them---and understand them---and love them---THAT's what I want! - Philip Barry (Holiday)

Posted: 6/19/05 at 8:10pmI write songs with my guitar. ::shrugs::
This is my signature.

Posted: 6/19/05 at 8:19pmI've written a handful of piano pieces, part of a violin sonata, some inventions and a fugue for theory classes. The fugue was hell. Next semester I'll probably have to write something 12-tone. That will be fun! (sarcastic)

I write songs on my guitar, and I write all my own basslines/solos for my band.
I'm also trying to write a novel.

I am a lyricist, and have started devling into composition, but mostly leave that to my composer. I have two musicals in the work, one of which has a producer attatched and will be workshopped in just under two years.

Posted: 6/20/05 at 4:01amDoes a playwrighter who have a full time job and wishes he have more time to concentrate on his craft work? One of this day, I'm going to quit my job and join a bohemian community. Unfortunately I still have my student loan to pay of.

Posted: 6/20/05 at 5:11amYeah, I hate how money doesn't magically appear in my bank account whenever I finish a project. When I'm God (or atleast King of the World) that, among other things, will happen.
