Things I’d Like To Do In the New Year

January 3, 2018 / elizabethdohertyauthor

I’m not very good at New Year’s Resolutions. I never keep them, and I make myself sick when I realize I can’t keep them. It’s stupid, I know, but that’s how my brain works. So this year, I have decided to make a list of things I want to do. Something laidback, that doesn’t involve changing or bettering myself. Things that I know I can accomplish:

YA Books I’d Like To See Turned Into Broadway Shows

December 5, 2017 / elizabethdohertyauthor

I’m a teacher. As such, I like to read what my students read, and so I read a lot of Young Adult books (also, let’s be honest, YA books are awesome). I’m also a Broadway enthusiast, which you probably realize if you read this blog or know me at all. Today, I am combining those two and making a list of the YA books I’d most like to see turned into Broadway musicals.

Dreamcast: The Royal We (by @fuggirls) as a Broadway Musical

November 28, 2017 / elizabethdohertyauthor

I’m sure I’m not the only romance author out there living for Prince Harry’s engagement to Meghan Markle. I mean, it’s practically right out of a novel. In fact, it echoes one of my favorite novels in many ways, The Royal We, by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan. (Have you read it yet? If not, please do. Let’s talk about it.) So for today’s blog, I thought I’d combine two of my favorite things: The Royal We and Broadway Dreamcasts.

So if they were to make The Royal We into a Broadway show (which they should), here’s who I’d want to see cast (NOTE: I am casting slightly on the older side because of the number of years the book covers and because people usually read slightly younger onstage).

Classic Movies I Want as Broadway Musicals

November 15, 2017 / elizabethdohertyauthor

So I’m busy watching Roman Holiday right now, which, if you didn’t know, is currently in the works as a Broadway musical. Brief Encounter, Sunset Boulevard, and many other Hollywood classics have found their way onto the Broadway stage. So it got me thinking. What old Hollywood films would I like to see as Broadway musicals? Here are just a few…

Things I Need To Do To Prepare for NaNoWriMo 2017

October 24, 2017 / elizabethdohertyauthor

Okay, guys. I hate to admit it, but I am slacking. Usually, I am completely prepared for this. I plan character, outline, make a cover, play around on the website. Everything. This year, I have a vague plan, less than a notebook page. I just have been so tired and lazy. I haven’t wanted to do anything. But it’s time I got my butt in gear. So here is my #NaNoWriMo to-do list.
