Remember when I said I was rejected by SFSU’s MFA program? Funny thing about that, turns out I was accepted! I was notified earlier today, a clerical error had been made and it wasn’t caught until now. Crazy, right? Turns out I’ll have less time this coming fall than I thought.
Semi-Finalist for Sonoma Stage Works’ PlayFest 2013

The readings will be at 2pm on June 2nd! The audience will then vote, and the top plays will receive a full production in September! More details to come!

Rejected From SFSU’s MFA Program
Biggest rejection of my life so far; my application was rejected from SFSU and the creative writing MFA program. I found out yesterday, and before you ask, I do not know why… They’re sending me a letter via snail mail to let me know. I very much hope that it isn’t a form letter…
I’m disappointed for sure, but I’ll be fine. Whatever the reason… I’m not going for an MFA, at least not this year. Time to figure some things out…
Finishing Up Binge
It was a tedious road, but I am happy to say that I have completed this binge! Is it just me, or does each new month seem busier than the last? I’m scared of starting April…
Anyway, here are my last seven submissions:
Submission number 25, I sent my ten minute play Baby Pie to Black Ship Theatre Co.. They’re looking for short plays and full length plays, for main stage productions and for a series called Black Curtain Submissions. They’d like plays that fit within this:
“For this season, we’re seeking plays with a touch of the absurd, imaginary, or the magical. We’re talking everything from tall tales & urban legends to new myths & folk heroes.”
I sent in My Body to The Collective for their short play showcase. They want ten minute plays that fit within their mission statement:
“The Collective unites professional artists who share a responsibility to create work in the contemporary American Theatre that is emotionally truthful, socially relevant, and defiantly accessible.”
Gi60 or Gone in 60 Seconds, a one minute play festival, seeks plays that are one minute long. You may submit as many one minute plays as you’d like, but they must all be sent in separate emails. I sent in three; Flee, Dealing With Death, and Not Pregnant.
And finally, for submissions 30 and 31, I sent plays into ICBNS. They’re looking for short and funny plays for a short play series, as well as plays of any length for a staged reading series. For the staged reading series they want comedies, or fringe-themed plays; fantasy, horror, or sc-fi. I sent in Nap Time as well as My Sister’s Baby.
That brings me up to 31! Yes! Done. Now to the other 100 things I have to do today……
