update

I'm getting to the end of the new play I'm writing which might be called American Manifesto or might be called The Fat Cat Killers. Charles Fazzino blogged about me. I used to work for him in shipping and receiving. Later this week the Single Carrot folks are flying me into Baltimore to give a talkback after Food For fish there. Come if you can. And then I'm back to MN for a couple of days, then flying to NYC for a reading of Incendiary. Come if you can. Oct 30 and Nov 6 at 8pm at the Public. Plays I want to see in new york include the 13P Crawl Fade to White, Flux's Angel Eaters Trilogy, Mike Daisey's If You See Something Say Something, the other readings at LAB, the Studio 42 Halloween party, Bluebox's Sticky, and probably five things I'm forgetting.

F4F review in City Paper

http://citypaper.com/arts/story.asp?id=16863

I don't love all of this. But it's posititve overall. some samples:

"And second, despite the lame conceit, Szymkowicz is a gifted young
playwright with an imagination on overdrive."

"The plot is almost impossible to follow."

"Szymkowicz and Single Carrot truly offer a plate of characters and a
tribute to the powers and the prisons that we live in as we
desperately try to find dates, sneak kisses, get published, and work
magic."

in my news

Someone is trying to sell my $7.50 play for a thousand dollars. We got into a car accident in Tulsa. A jeep hit us from behind, flipped over into oncoming traffice lanes and ended face up in the oposite side gutter. We're fine, the other driver was fine, no one else was injured, but now we have to figure out how to get the car in shape for the trek back to MN. Staying in William Inge's house. There is indeed a dark at the top of the stairs. It's quiet here. I like it. Wish it would stop raining.
