My final senior thesis project/creative portfolio of the plays and screenplays I’ve written over the past year at Rice. This project really started when I got the idea for my first full-length play at the end of my junior year of high school. I couldn’t have predicted it then, but I can now say that I am a playwright. I also finished the last paper of my undergraduate career last night. Once I turn it in, I’ll be finished with all my coursework. These are small thresholds, leading up to the big one on May 11th when I walk back out of the Sallyport and officially graduate from Rice. I’m going to have plenty of time to miss Rice, to be sad about leaving my friends and mentors for the next phase. For now, I’m proud of what I created here and how everything I’ve learned at Rice is going to continue to inspire and motivate me. Thanks. Rice Owl for life. View high resolution

A word is not the same with one writer as with another. One tears it from his guts. The other pulls it out of his overcoat pocket.

“
A narrative is like a room on whose walls a number of false doors have been painted; while within the narrative, we have many apparent choices of exit, but when the author leads us to one particular door, we know it is the right one because it opens.
