Last Friday, I wrote the words THE END on Stages | Episode Five, the final instalment in the Sophie Walker series. After an enthusiastic start (I wrote the first four episodes in a month) I struggled to write the final episode.
There are some moments that only come once in a lifetime. The first time you kiss a boy, the first time you have sex, the first time you lose someone you love. Yesterday, I had one of those first moments — I saw my words in print for the first time.
The first episode is fairly tame compared to what comes afterwards. Sophie transforms from an emotionally and physically repressed woman into a sexually adventurous vixen.
I’ve spent twenty years working in theatre as a stage manager and I’ve never really talked about it on my blog. It’s like being a spy — no one knows exactly what you do but it sounds exciting.
