Really healing these days to do at least more than nothin'
I'm working on 1 revision of a play, a new one for adults and a short one for jr/sr high school students. I find that helps me ignore the 1 beep per section announcements of new emails that are desperately asking for money and/or actions
I let my unconscious goof off, sleep late, watch news or Hallmark movie, no blame for wasting the day, then I go into the writing trance, often from 3 pm to 2 am... sometimes even when msnbc on in the background so if I get ancy and want to go out to walk, I tune into a news comment, that holds me, and soon I tune back out the news and get back into the writing flow. Don't think I can schedule that!
That, coming from you, will keep me going! All three plays are very related to the values of voting and the protest tools of democracy over violence... one about the first insurgency with armed protesters against the government in 1787, armed but not as violent as Jan6 . Another about dictators. And one for kids about a bully trying to mess up their class demonstration of how the US govt is structured and how people's needs are turned into a law.
I think I needed this today. Thank you for your wise words Emma!

I'm just glad you are writing. Your work has so much power and intelligence.

I knew you would be all over this moment with your very relevant work. Thank you for what you are doing! Onward!
Love. It is finding the opportunities for agency, no matter how small.
Mais Oui! Thank you for loving. So glad you're here. (I looked for you earlier today online but didn't see your name.)

I was there but having to do other things at the same time. Need to watch the replay.
