First place for "The Triumph of Law"!

I got home from my visit with my parents to find a fat packet waiting in the mail for me. It was from Driftwood Players, the group in Edmonton, WA that put on a production of my ten-minute play, The Triumph of Law. It had been accepted for performance in their shorts festival, which involved a judging process, both from a panel of judges and the choice of the audience. When I opened the packet, look what I found!

There was no letter, so I'm not entirely sure if it's from the judges or the people's choice. But they did include a program from the evening, and a copy of the voting form for the audience to mark off their choices, so perhaps that's to indicate it's won the popular vote. I've sent an email to the lady who contacted me to ask for sure. Either way, I'm very pleased. I like this piece a great deal, and I'm really proud that it got recognition. I hope to use this to boost my creative energy and get back to serious work on my projects. It should give me a nice injection of self-confidence.
