Hey guys, amazing news!
If you happen to be near a newsstand or are a subscriber to Writer's Digest, make sure to take a gander at page 53 of the newest issue, the one with Brad Thor on the cover.
On it, you will find my name listed as the first place winner of the "Stage Play" section of the 77th Annual Writer's Digest Writing Competition! I'm extremely blessed and excited for the honor (there were over 17,000 entrants), which was judged by New York Times Bestseller Aury Wallington, who also wrote some great episodes of "Sex and the City" and "Veronica Mars."
The first twenty pages of the play are apparently supposed to appear in an upcoming issue as well, so be on the lookout for that!

Posted: 11/2/08 at 11:25amI never thought I'd say this, but I'm starting to feel nostalgic for beacon1's 4,862 different threads about Patrick Wilson.

I am, HellsBells, I am. When they called to tell me I actually pulled my car over and did a personal jig in it--probably looked insane to passersby.
And I really do need to thank those of you on the forum who have been so supportive of me from the start, friending me on Facebook and sending me letters of support. I really do appreciate it more than you know, and hope that I can share all this with you sometime soon!

"probably looked insane to passersby."
Probably not just to passersby.

It's condensed.
Just add a can of milk or water.
