More Suzan-Lori

Suzan-Lori Parks is everywhere right now - on the cover of American Theatre and featured in The New Yorker. And she's inspiring me as I write.

I was writing a new play every day, whether it was good or not, whether it was convenient or not. Whatever happened. And it became this prayer, almost. To theatre. To life. To the art process, to the process of making art and being alive. It sort of took over my whole year...Sometimes I would write it in the security line at the airport, you know?...A lot of them were written in hotels...I didn't limit the time. I sat down and did it and then kind of went on with the day.
