Description
"Elise Hellman was once heralded by audiences and critics as a "playwright to watch." Then they forgot all about her. When a prestigious theater compaun expectedly offers her a generous commission to write a new play, she has an opportunity to turn her career around. With sixty-five days left until her deadline, Elise starts scribbling a few pages of stream-of-consciousness first thing every morning as a way to get over her writer's block -- a technique called Morning Pages, popularized in Julia Cameron's The Artists Way." What emerges is a witty confessional in which Elise chronicles her life with her teenage stoner son and her overbearing and eccentric mother, who is losing her memory but not her profanity. She writes about her lingering feelings for her ex-husband, her best friend who is acting oddly, and the confusing encounters she has with a handsome stranger in an elevator. As she writes, the marked up scenes from her play Deja New, are revealed, as a story within the story. Morning Pages is about what life throws at you when you're trying to write. It is both a humorous exploration of the creative process and a relatable coming-of-age tale for the genearation sandwiched between caring for their parents and caring for their kids." --,Book jacket flap
