LINKS ON LINKS

Patrick Link:

I love how on blogs you can link to stuff. I wish I could that in my plays. It provides an excellent opportunity for added subtext. Even a great work like The Seagull could benefit from hyperlinks. Take a look:

-

MEDVEDENKO: Why do you always wear black?

MASHA: Because I'm in mourning for my life. I'm not happy.

MEDVEDENKO: Why not? (Perplexed) I don't understand why not. You're in good health; your father is...well, he's not rich, but he's pretty well off. I'm in a lot worse shape than you. I make twenty-three rubles a month, that's before payroll deductions, and I'm not in mourning. (Sits)

MASHA: It has nothing to do with money. You can still be poor and still be happy.

(Scene)

See? Isn't that cool?
