Darren Harned

Darren Harned
South Amherst
Playwrite/Writer
Darren is a writer, primarily of plays. Some of his work has received a bit of attention and, to be perfectly honest about it, Darren admits that having that attention was quite nice when it happened and that he wouldn't mind getting some more. He is too young to know what sort of stories he prefers to write, really, or what the hallmarks of his style are. Thematically, he is drawn toMURDER and LIES and DECEIT and the PAIN OF EXISTENCE, though he can also docomedy or children's entertainment if the mood strikes him and the pay is right. Interestingly, when Darren writes he does so from within the confines of a hermetically sealed bubble located in his basement. It is made out of old shopping bags. But lately Darren has been feeling like working in this shopping bag bubble is perhaps not the best thing for him, creatively speaking, and so he wants to branch out and possibly even go so far as to talk to other people. He thinks that maybe...and this is a big maybe...he could collaborate. But hedoesn't know yet. He's testing the waters. And that is why he's posting here today.
