To smile or not to smile?
Let's write something, shall we? It's been a while. The only thing I wrote recently was my script for the show, just a rough draft which has since undergone some changes after a meeting with Selena. I was really quite proud of what I wrote too! Alas, I have no ear for what would appeal or even be understandable to the general public, and must borrow Selena's ears toward that purpose. Oh wait, I did write something else. Fridae sent me an email interview and printed my answers verbatim, for which I am always grateful. I'm quite happy with that too, and hopefully something of myself and what I am going to do in the concert comes across. Even more interesting than the interview itself was a comment on the interview. The comment said I have a beautiful smile in the accompanying photo but laments that said smile is seldom seen when I'm out and about. I've had that accusation leveled at me more than once, and more than once I refrained from responding, certainly not in the same space as the complaint! Part of the reason is that I don't know how to respond. I do think that if I go around town smiling at everyone all the time, I shall be thought of as, well, crazy. Maybe I really just don't have a friendly look. Like Katharine Hepburn, my mouth turns down when it's not turned up. It is an unfortunate fault, one that I won't say I shall try to correct, but will certainly TRY to be more aware of, especially in the weeks to come.
