A sentence every playwright loves to hear.

"Dear Mr Ircink, the Festival wishes to accept your play for consideration."
- regarding my full-length play, "Chromosome 21".

The festival is the Icicle Creek Theatre Festival, just east of Seattle. To qualify scripts so they're not flooded with subpar material, you send in a synopsis, character information and a statement about where the play has been, where you think it's headed as far as development, what you want out of the workshop, etc. - they sort through that and then pick which scripts they'd like to read and pick the final two or three to workshop. It's a crapshoot but that's what a writer does.
