I never felt more glamorous than when I stood on the stage receiving a standing ovation for my performance of a Roman Emperor. I originally turned down the role of the heavy set male character. I am female and I feared I couldn't do the role justice. What were the odds that I would be convincing? But the beseige of requests eroded away at my phobia and I rose to the challenge.

Like a jug of liquid, I poured my heart into the role. I took into account his entire being. My soul decended into the steep hallows of this immortal man.

And now, as I stand on the 60 cubic foot stage dressed in a red cotton robe, a scroll in my hand, I release a happy sigh. No one cared about the indians huddled in the corner. They were junk to my tidy performance.

Flashes of cameras and flickers of light reflecting from diamond jewelry assaulted me. The applause, the cheering - this was fame, if only for 15 minutes.

(Though this exercise seemed like a cinch, I was ponderous as to how I could use all the words to boost my creative fitness.)
