Wally's First Blog

Hello, everyone! I have now navigated the website and am prepared to blog away now and after we get to London this fall. For those who want to know where I'm going and what I'm studying, here's the website:

http://www.brunel.ac.uk/courses/postgraduate/shakespeare-authorship-studies-ma

Just negotiated past another federal loan/grant application for school after some great advice by my freind Dan at Brunel's Finance Office. I figured out most of the acronyms but may need help on some others: it's a whole new world for me out there in educational finances...!

I also finished pulling monlogues from Shakespeare's comedies, histories, and tragedies to use in my project this fall -- about 85-90 -- with a test run here this summer, if I'm ready by then. Will work on poems, sonnets, and non-Shakespearean plays and poems next, then put together contexts, author biographies, and tips for "speaking the speech trippingly on the tongue" for my actors. I'm excited about getting this together and working with folks at Brunel and in London this fall.

Still looking for buyers for our fine art pieces and our fabulous Carl Dorr Viennese Piano: anybody out there got any suggestions, please let me know!

Happy Memorial Day everyone! Remember our troops in your thoughts and prayers: their sacrifices past and present are the reason we enjoy the freedom we have today!

And Happy Birthday to my fabulous wife Maria on the 28th!

More later,


Wally
