Having been interested in acting and musical performance, I often found myself getting involved in these things throughout my life. I have discovered that I enjoy writing scripts for theater specifically so to start, I have written out my plays and posted them here on Amazon KDP. So far I have had only one play produced by a small, local theater group in my hometown called Urban Stories Theatre. That play was called, ""Couch Potato,"" a One-Act play which is included in a compilation among my published works. I hope that anyone who may purchase my scripts can enjoy my writing and hopefully even perform it in the future. Thank you for taking the time to humor a no name such as myself. Have a wonderful day! (c) 2022 Milton Joseph"
