Real joy is in constructing a sentence!
It’s the birthday of humorist Steve Martin,
born in Waco, Texas (1945).
He’s known as a comedian and actor,
but he has also written several plays and novels, including WASP (1995), Shopgirl (2000), and An Object of Beauty (2010).
He said: “The real joy is in constructing a sentence.
But I see myself as an actor first because writing is what you do when you are ready
and acting is what you do when someone else is ready.”
