Excerpt:

And it’s sad.  A desolate wasteland of forced grins and rubber chicken wit.  Movies we’ve never heard of, starring faces that almost look like famous people.  Who knew Dane Cook was in so many movies?  Who knew Jason Biggs’ career was flourishing like this?  Oh, wait – that’s not Jason Biggs.  That’s a lookalike of Jason Biggs.  What kind of career are you having when your greatest asset is that you kind of look like Jason Biggs?

Excerpt:

I’m thinking of changing my name.  There’s been a lot of talk in recent years about women playwrights.  Somebody did a study a while back and discovered that even though women make up half the graduates of playwriting programs across the country, only something like 10 percent of new play productions are going to women playwrights.  Or something like that – I can’t remember the exact numbers, probably because I’m a girl and girls are stupid.
