Samuel Merrin is a dedicated blogger, an accomplished short story writer, and an aspiring novelist. Samuel Merrin thinks it would be awesome to write a play, but isn’t quite sure how one goes about that. It has been years since Samuel Merrin has even thought about going to a play, but sometimes movies starring Diane Keaton glamorize the playwriting process (Annie Hall, Something’s Gotta Give) and Samuel Merrin finds this inspiring. The irony of a glamorization of playwriting and stagework in a cinematic presentation is not lost on Samuel Merrin. Also, Samuel Merrin has a lifelong fascination with Diane Keaton, as she is continuously classy, beautiful, intelligent, clever, and fascinating to watch.

My name is Samuel Merrin, and I am a writer with a dream. A dream to escape the tedious nature of my part-time job and explore the globe with only a notebook, a sharpened pencil, and the shoes on my feet. Actually, I’d just like to quit my job. But I do like to write.
