We're Back with More Character Ed

A quick apology for the many months since I've blogged. I have a cardiac defibrillator implanted in my my chest, and it fired for the first time at the beginning of February. (In case you're wondering, I honestly thought the room suddenly exploded. Not much fun.) This led to many months of doctors running every possible test on me and arguing among themselves on whether I did or did not need a heart transplant.

Fast forward to September. I still have the heart I was born with, and I feel fine. So let me tell you about Bad Wolf.

Our spring release, U.S. Constitution, was held up for months until I was able to complete it. It came out in May, which was too late for most teachers to use it. A few managed to put it on, and we've heard some very good things. John and I really like it.

Over the summer we worked on a sequel to our best-selling Character Matters, and a few weeks ago we released Character Matters II. Here's the URL:

Like all of our plays, you can read the first one-third of the script and listen to four sample songs.

I think the script is very funny, and I think this is the best set of songs we've ever recorded.
I'll tell you more about it in the near future. For now, please go check out the script.
