An open letter




To the people who are searching for reviews of my play
Deflowering Waldo and stumble on my blog instead:

First of all, why do you care? Either you like the
play or you don't. Either you want to do it or you
don't. Why do you care what other people say?

Second, you're not going to find a review of it
online. We performed it in secrecy. At night. You
had to know a special password to get in. And you had
to be able to say it correctly, in Russian. And you
had to pay a lot of money directly to a Swiss bank
account prior to the performance. And we did it in my
basement. And the people who saw it were sworn to
secrecy and could never talk about the experience.
Because we didn't want the riff raff to see the show
and then write an online review.

I hope this information helps.

Sincerely,
Adam

What makes a good writer? Is writing an expression of
self, or, as TS Eliot argued, 'an escape from
personality'? Do novelists have a duty? Do readers?

I'm having a reading of my new play Searching at
Juilliard.

It's a dark comedy and goes back and forth between our
president plotting to get unlimited terms and 3
soldiers in the desert searching for Osama. There is
also a love triangle in the desert and unrequited love
between Bush and Cheney.

Let me know if you want to go and I'll put you on the
list.

Speaker Pelosi also confirmed what Bob Cesca wrote in
Tuesday's Huffington Post: That one of the conditions
being placed on the Iraqi government by the White
House is that American oil companies be given first
shot at Iraqi oil and be allowed to keep 75 percent of
the profits.

"In the president's proposal, one of the standards
that he's setting for them to meet is that 75 percent
of the oil production goes to U.S. companies," she
said. "This is stunning -- 75 percent of the
production goes to the U.S. Is this what our kids are
over there for?"
