FEMALE CHARACTER
Uh-oh... I sense bad news is on the way
MALE CHARACTER
How do you know?
FEMALE CHARACTER
How do I know? How-do-I-know? Do you hav'ta ask that? Can't you feel the bad vibes?
MALE CHARACTER
I thought it was just a bad case of indigestion from all the popcorn she ate last night. She always pigs out on popcorn when her plays are rejected
FEMALE CHARACTER
Yeah - don't we know it! At least it's the diet kind. Okay - steel yourself now! It's coming...
ELLIE
Um - people...characters from my play... No. Friends
FEMALE CHARACTER
Okay. We get the picture. Been there, heard that. Now just cut to the chase. So?
ELLIE
Well there's good news and bad news
MALE CHARACTER
Do we get a choice which one we wanna hear first?
FEMALE CHARACTER
Oh pleeze! Just let her divest herself of all her angst will you, so that we can get on with our so-called purpose in life?
ELLIE
Ahem... The good news is that I entered the BBC International Playwriting Competition
FEMALE CHARACTERThat's it? You entered a competition? That's all the good news you have to tell us? Oh gawd - here it comes...
ELLIE
Well...I didn't win
FEMALE CHARACTER
This dear playwright, is not news. You are aware that we have been in this state for years now waiting...waiting...waiting for the call that never comes. Y'know - it's not easy being characters from a play longing to share ourselves with theatre audiences. The stage! The lights! The applause! Never to hear applause...
ELLIE
What can I say? Maybe I should just do another re-write
MALE CHARACTER
A re-write? Is that...like really necessary? I mean...the play does make a strong statement
FEMALE CHARACTER
Wait a minute. You won't change our characters, will you? You do like us, right?
ELLIE
Of course. I just want to tighten up the dialogue, is all. You'll be happy to hear that I'm going to have a public reading
MALE CHARACTERFantastic! At last real people will get to know us and who knows where that could lead!
ELLIE
Now all I hav'ta do is find some people. It can't be just anybody off the street, y'know!
FEMALE CHARACTER
Why not? A body is a body is a body. At least they're real people
ELLIE
Yeah - I suppose. Now all I hav'ta do is spread the word and set it all up...
MALE CHARACTER
We'll be waiting. We're always waiting
FEMALE CHARACTER
Ain't that the truth!

George W. Bush‘s Decision Points has received a positive endorsement by former president Bill Clinton.
According to the Associated Press, Clinton had this book review: “Decision Points is well-written, and interesting from start to finish. I think people of all political stripes should read it. George W. Bush also gives readers a good sense of what it’s like to be president, to take the responsibilities of the office seriously, do what you think is right, and let history be the judge.”
The Wall Street Journal reported that Bush’s memoir generated the largest first-day sales for a nonfiction book Random House had seen in 6 years. On opening day, Bush sold an estimated 220,000 copies (counting hardcover and eBook sales). Random House published Clinton’s memoir in 2004, counting 400,000 copies sold on the first day.

PLAYWRIGHTVILLE
(the imaginary level of consciousness where rejected playwrights address the characters in their play)
