More Fun Facts About Me Than You'd Ever Want To Know
Jas Faulkner is a minimally socialized writer and artist who lives in Nashville Tennessee.
She has an annoying habit of answering rhetorical questions.
That thing about her being a biter is true.
She hearts her attitude problem.
Notoriously reclusive and prone to panic scratching and spraying when cornered, she tends to dress in the style of her ancestral people in a misguided effort to escape notice.
She frequents coffee shops and the less traveled stacks in book stores around Nashville.
Jas started out writing plays after finding dog-eared copies of The Odd Couple and Antigone in the tackroom her family shared with a Texas Tech student. She still loves the work of Neil Simon, but has cooled towards Sophocles' buried tart* after spending every semester from her sophomore year in high school to her junior year in college seeing Antigone on the required reading list of at least one class.** The other kinds of writing came much later.
Other fun facts about Jas Faulkner:
*Apologies if this spoiled the play for you, but yeah, Creon plants her and gets back the business of being a wobbly-pated despot. You are now free to move on to the works of Aristophanes, which is more fun to read. You're welcome.
**(presumptive answer) Yes, two productions. Once as a garden variety chorus member and another time as a coryphaeus by dint of being the shortest person in the cast.
