I belong to a Yahoo group called the Playwrights Binge - the main focus is for playwrights to encourage each other and share opportunities, be they a contest, theaters looking for plays, etc. As is usually the case when I belong to such a list, I mostly lurk, rarely posting but usually reading everything that gets posted. This list does what they call a "submission binge" twice a year, the goal of which is to send out 30 submissions over the course of 30 days. The current binge has been taking place over September and so has about a week to go. Since I spent the start of the month trying to finish up writing The Princess and the Moon I haven't really been shooting for 30 submissions this month. To be honest I usually have a hard time finding that many good opportunities in any given month; I usually try to submit though whenever a good opp is posted to the list. But, in the spirit of the binge, today I send selections of Princess out to another 8 children's theaters across the country, which brings me to a total of 11 theaters that I've sent a partial or full script of that play to. Plus I've done about half a dozen other submissions this month, so I've made it a little more than halfway to the goal of 30, not too bad. I'm hoping that at least a few of the theaters will be interested in the full script to Princess. It's out there now, now for the waiting game. Guess that means I should start writing something else. ![]()
