Indeed it tis. I know they're all on myspace, but it'd seem self-promotional to add them, or something.

I don't recall a TBS Grote call. Make it happen, unless I'm just being slow! Hope you're having a great summer.

Hey, just graduated last week. Lookin for a job cause I didn't get into grad school. It's very funny, I have been really interested about radio theater for the past few months. Do you have any suggestions about where I can learn to write a radio play and the business today? Thanks.

Jason, it was really great to meet you this week in NY. Really enjoyed the lunch, and CHURCH by YJL.

I know we're going to find an opportunity soon to get you to Roanoke.

Thanks for the add, and I'm looking forward to finding as many opportunities as possible for creative exchanges.

Sorry I didn't check out your play. It was a roller coaster semester. I took a playwriting coarse. It was much different from screenwriting and tooks months to adjust to. Graduating in may and trying to get into Brooklyn College TV/RADIO MFA. If you have anything in January, I'll check it out.
