Welcome, DonMany. I have a piano available, but I don't spend time learning it. I do remember making the children play it.

I'm thinking of writing a book of limericks. Why would you want to make your book anonymous?Quote:

Hi, I'm Kristopher Murdock (or Kris), an Apostolic Pentecostal from Fredericktown, Missouri, but it's fine to refer to me by just my username. Jesus is my everything, and I love using drama and music to praise Him and share Him with others.
I found this forum when researching Gaston LeRoux's Phantom of the Opera for a musical I'm adapting from a sequel novel. The research is for the purpose of making sure that when I reference elements set in place by the first story, I'm going by what LeRoux's book says and not by what I've learned from Andrew Lloyd Webber (since his musical is still copyrighted and I'm not affiliated with him or his company).
By the way, I encourage everyone to check out the Scriptures in my signature to learn what God says about Himself and His plan of Salvation. Also, check the Ustream link (also in my signature) to watch service videos anytime from the most powerful and loving church of which I've ever been a member.
I look forward to interacting with fellow community members and sharpening each other's literary knowledge and skills.
Welcome to the forums RnR!
Welcome aboard all the new members :)
I sing the ancient arc of time, dance in its dust and laugh under its moonlight - oh yeah, and if there's time left over, I write about it. Hi boys and girls....
Hello everyone,
You can call me George Gordon, but you don't have to call me Lord Byron (from whom I stole the name).
RnR/Kris, I'm always glad to see someone involved in drama and music - I wonder if you might know or be interested in the musical "The Gospel at Colonus?" It just came to mind.
Gerheartsolomon, I love those lines you've posted - very striking.
As for me, I just joined up. I'm a doctoral student in theatre, though I started out as a musician and have a bachelor's degree in music composition. I love to sing, write plays and poetry, and generally behave in rewardingly abnormal ways. My favorite authors are Bill Shakespeare, Sam Beckett, and Joe Goethe; favorite book is a tough choice between Finnegans Wake and Moby-Dick. As for music, Mozart, Wagner, Schoenberg, Mingus, and the Beatles should do.
I've been studying French as a second language, so I have to mention Mallarmé and especially Racine.
Current projects include research into opera, intermedial theatre, and a music-theatre adaptation of Percy and Mary Shelley's work. Looking around here, I've already been introduced to some new authors, and I look forward to trading interests with all of you!
Welcome, George Gordon! So you were able to read Finnegans Wake?
Welcome, George Gordon. I am also a fan of Byron. You have a lot of interests that are at home here.
Thanks, YesNo and Dreamwoven!
I hope we'll have plenty of opportunities to talk about Byron - a prolific writer and an eventful life. Even Gertrude Stein had a few things to say about him.
I'll admit that I haven't read the entirety of the Wake from front to back, but I've read most of it by opening it to random sections and continuing for great lengths. It seems appropriate somehow. I've also been aided by Roland McHugh's Annotations to Finnegans Wake, which displays the annotations visually as they correspond to the words' placement on the novel's pages. Of course, no one but Joyce can claim to understand the whole thing.
"The fall (bababadalgharaghtakamminarronnkonnbronntonnerronn tuonntrovarrhounawnskawntoohoohoordenenthurnuk!)"
It's a lot of fun.
