Inspiration from a Hardworking Playwright and Teacher
An inspiration from the speaker's oldest friend, who is a deputy headmaster in a difficult primary school and also a playwright./nThe friend has written around 40 plays and has had minor successes in London and on BBC Radio 4, but has not yet had a big breakthrough./nThe friend has recently finished writing a novel, which he has sent to an interested agent./nThe friend's dedication to writing is evident in his routine of waking up at five in the morning to write for a couple of hours before starting his day at school./nHe always carries a notebook with him to jot down ideas and notes.
