So here comes Spring at last and I'm waking myself up and trying to act like a playwright again, plodding on with Anonymous and Me and looking for submissions for work already finished.
Last week one of the requirements was a 300 word synopsis. This one wanted one of "less than 200 words" and in only three hours I managed to rewrite the last one and get it sent off. Last week wanted contact info in the script, this time blind script, contact info elsewhere, all done.
Everything has a horoscope, as we all know, so I drew one up (well, Time Passages did) for the moment of submission and all looked good. Leo rising with north node on the ascendant, Taurus on the midheaven plugging along as I do, moon in Gemini in the 11th, ever hopeful, retrograde Mercury in Aries - ooh, hold on - look again at script submitted, right, no contact info but - ooh, no character breakdown page either as that took itself out with the title page...
Contrite and groveling email sent to theater explaining mistake (omitting retrograde Mercury part) and asking if could send new PDF marked (PLAY NAME) USE THIS ONE. Now waiting, er, for a response....
