Shocking. Terrible devastation in Oklahoma today. So much suffering. We are in the Age of Thick Skin ... widespread suffering more and more the norm. A tragedy, the hero's fatal flaw...ignorance, arrogance.
The thing is, Nature wins. We get what we deserve.
"The struggle itself ... is enough to fill a man's heart." --Camus

The Deemer Interview
Charles Deemer teaches screenwriting at Portland State University. He is a playwright, novelist, screenwriter, and pioneer in hyperdrama. He was the editor of Oregon Literary Review and the artistic director of Small Screen Video.
"Having written almost daily for over 40 years, I can say that writing is not a job or a vocation or a profession--it is an existence. It is a way of being in the world."
