more links: successful people and odds of pilot success

Here are some more great links from recent reading:

Marc and Angel Hack Life has a great post listing the 12 things successful people do differently.  It has links to book titles and lots of good ideas on things like goal setting, finding balance, and measuring/tracking progress.

And, for a dose of Hollywood TV land reality, take a look at Ken Levine's blog, where he writes about the process of creating and casting a hit series.  Keep reading until the comments, where you'll see a lot of people say things like 'yikes! I had no idea it was this hard to be an actor!'  

Lastly, over at 2amt (a blog/twitter hashtag where you can share your 2am thoughts about theater and theatermaking), there's a post by playwright Laura Axelrod entitled 'Can Women Write Good Plays?'  And, even more awesome is the birth of a new twitter hashtag: #2femt, which looks to be a place for discussion of women's representation in theatermaking.
