“I’m very conscious of my decline in popularity, but I don’t permit it to stop me because I have the example of so many playwrights before me. I know the dreadful notices Ibsen got. And O’Neill — he had to die to make ‘Moon’ successful. And to me it has been providential to be an artist, a great act of providence that I was able to turn my borderline psychosis into creativity — my sister Rose did not manage this. So I keep writing. I am sometimes pleased with what I do — for me, that’s enough.”

Are you all right? x
Missing you, Sheila. Be well and come back as soon as you can. Best.
Hi! Hope you’re doing well!
Have almost emailed you several times, but I figured you were working on/through something in your own time and didn’t want to be bothered.
Hope you’re ok, been missing your voice.
Hi Kid,
Suzy and I are glad you are still in business.
A good Yankee girl like yourself will survive any set back.
Bette
P.S. Beckett must have put a smile on your kisser.

Good to see you posting again, my dear friend. I hope you are well and adjusting to your new home. You are in my thoughts, I send you all my love, dear Sheila.
BTW – What a poignant quote! Food for my thoughts, although I am not an artist by any stretch of the imagination. But I write down my own thoughts – incoherently, but it helps. I have lost my words, but I am trying to find them. One day I will, I hope!
Love & kisses,
Ceci
I’m glad you’re back. I hope you are well. I like that quote. I, too, am grateful that God uses my craziness, although I certainly am no Tennessee Williams.
Missed you, Sheila.
Ah, excellent — out of the lunar shadow and back in communication. Columbia, this is Mission Control — we copy you five by five. You are go for lunar orbital insertion! ;-)
this made my day. God bless you, Sheila!
Checking in everyday to see if you are ‘back’. I’m glad today is the day. I hope you are well, Sheila!
Absence rued, and return celebrated.
I’m glad you’re back, and I hope you’re doing well.
Writing to please oneself–I’ll have to share that with the teens in the creative writing workshop at my library!
Nice to see you posting, Sheila–hope things are going well, busy lady.
Missed you. Glad you are back, and hope you are well.
Welcome back, Sheila. Hope all is well.
AllTheBest,
Rob

Missed ya much! xoxoxoxox
i was worried something had happened to you. I sincerely hope all is well with you.
Had no idea that coming here to an empty page every day would feel the way it did. Our attachments are all we have. You’re back. Thank you.
Welcome back! It’s good to see you posting again. Hope the move went (relatively) smoothly and that you and Hope are safe and happy. Good luck with your Top Secret Thing!
Glad to see you back – hope your move went well, and that all is going well. Have missed your posts – and love this quote! Being sometimes pleased with what one does is not valued enough in this world – and it should be.
Ah, I was THIS close to emailing you and asking why your website wasn’t working. DUH. I forgot you had mentioned moving! I hope everything is going well for you and look forward to future postings!
What DBW said.

I don’t check your site everyday.. and got really worried when it was just a blank. Hope you’re well. SO good to see you back!
