my next play

He takes a screwdriver to the artificial heart. He shimmies it
between the chambers. There must be some kind of missed connection.

"Beat, damn it! Beat," he rails at the artificial heart on the table
before him.

But the heart won't beat for him. Because a heart will only beat for
who a heart will beat for and no one has any say in the matter but the
heart in question.

The Newest News

So that thing I wasn't sure if I was going to mention that I was so excited about was that I got into the MCC Playwrights Coalition. Apparently they are graduating some of their members and taking on some new members of which I am one. I find this incredibly exciting because 4 years ago I interned at MCC and I got to hang out with the Coalition and they were incredibly nice and amazingly talented and I must say I feel truly honored to be among their number now. I've already set up two table reads. I plan to make good use of their developmental help.

Iraq where "private companies are guaranteed huge profits no matter how badly they fuck things up."

This article is truly shocking. I didn't realize the extent that the US government is actively giving away money to unqualified people who are not doing the work they are hired to do and are merely ripping us off. Meanwhile whenever someone tries to hold these companies and individuals accountable, this person is threatened or demoted and Bush steps in to prevent the private companies from being accountable for their fraud.
