The reason I started this blog, way way back in 2005, was because I wanted to talk about Shakespeare and didn’t have people in my life with whom I could do that. Well, I mean, I could, but all they’d do is smile and nod politely and then make for the exits. So I decided that every time I wanted to talk about Shakespeare, I’d post. Sometimes you nice people even write me back!
Sometimes, though, a more one-to-one conversation is in order. A blog is not a conversation, it’s more like a cocktail party conversation where people are constantly coming and going and you’re never really sure who even heard you or was listening, until and unless they respond. Sometimes what you need is a dedicated, focused conversation between two people were you have some reasonable expectation that the person is listening to you and probably going to respond.
With that in mind, here’s my Skype info. If you want somebody with whom you can randomly chat about Shakespeare, hit me up. I’d love to have some more detailed conversation with those of you who’ve been following and commenting for years! I can’t promise how often I’ll be around, but who can?
