I have my degree in theatre and though I specialized in screen writing I did take some directing classes and the actors drove me crazy too. Not only because they didn't do things *my* way all the time, but because as the writer I found it totally annoying when they didn't say the lines *exactly* as I had written them. Whether the changes were intentional or not didn't matter. Those were my words, damnit, and I wrote them that way for a reason. *Lol!* But now that I'm writing fiction I have imaginary characters rather than live actors changing my words around. And the funny thing is that quite often their changes are better than what I'd planned in the first place. You just can't win. *g* I laughed out loud when I read your comments on the trials and tribulations of directing.

I love writing their stories, but egads, couldn't they wait their turns? O_o *hug*
