I found your "blog" when lo...Dear Sir. <br /><br />I found your "blog" when looking for information about my play online. You know, one has to have a thick skin to deal with the arrogance of the pathetic human minds that work in this business. You know the ones I'm talking about? The ones that can insult your work, maintain their anonymity and act like an authority on good theatre? Yeah... I am an actor in the When Last We Flew play, and I started working on it in it's earliest stages because it reflected my experience coming from a small town, which I still visit often, even though I live in NYC. And it's brilliant. You make broadm personal, unexamined brushstrokes about a very intelligent writer, who is courageous enough to reveal a story about his life, his upbringing that is beautiful and real. You know, it's highly possible that one can come from a small town, leave it, and be grateful to it, because of what it has taught them about life. It takes a true artist to convert it onto paper, into a form of art that inspires other artists to work on it, and then transforms people in a positive way. Many of us can sit around and criticize someone like Harrison, because we don't have the balls to do what he does. You might take a lesson from this young man. Clearly, you need to learn a thing or two about writing. <br /><br />Sincerely, <br />Karen Pittman<br />Marian - When Last We FlewAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16876687.post-14262379419274742062010-06-23T11:37:35.106-04:002010-06-23T11:37:35.106-04:00Scott,

As an out-of-work Ph.D. in theatre, recently relocated to Denver, I'm constantly looking for work. I'll say that this post made me a HUGE fan. HUGE. Anyway, thanks for posting - and for making me smile today.<br /><br />.trestleboytrestleboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15791525670488483436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16876687.post-57269403894295042852010-06-22T14:49:54.836-04:002010-06-22T14:49:54.836-04:00wow, good post.
