I’m a bit tired of my bullsh*t. Whatever’s gonna happen is gonna happen. My whole life has been “I’ve never done [x] before” and I figured it out. This is no different. If there’s anything I love, it’s a free fall so I’m kind of done talking about it. As the greats say, “Don’t talk…

A couple of you have reached out to me about my most recent post (thank you). I keep forgetting people actually read this blog. I’m okay. I just wanted to capture the moment. And it’s been an intense one. Since May, I lost my cat and my grandfather in the same week. I almost lost…

On New Year’s Eve, I asked 2021 to “wreck my plans” and 2021 was like “Bet.” I got into tarot* because of the show I’m working on. In order to get more familiar with the cards, for the last six weeks, I’ve been doing tarot readings for myself every morning. The last two days I’ve…

I turned down my dream job. Or at least what I thought was my dream job. For years, I’ve been saying it would be a dream come true to be the Director of New Work/Literary Manager at a theatre company. I’m constantly reading plays anyway and making lists of my favorite plays. I really wanted…

I think I might be done. It’s been interesting to me that for months I’ve been talking about how burned out I am and how absolutely nothing has slowed down. And most of the people at these theatre companies seem to be fine with me passing out in my living room, working 70-80 hours a…

CW: suicide ideation, self-harm Yesterday, my cat died. I wanted to write a blog post about first drafts and how I feel like people just aren’t as excited by them and I don’t know why…but then my cat died in a pretty traumatic way. (She was only five.) I very frankly told a close friend…

I’m going to get in trouble for this one. For as long as I can remember, I have always been very, very, very into awards and titles. I haven’t always been good at deciphering if I wanted something because I actually wanted it or I felt like I was supposed to want it. I was…

It’s funny to me that I had told myself I wouldn’t write a post in April and this is now my third. I feel like stories have been pouring out of me honestly. I went January through most of April without being able to write anything. Then suddenly, I was able to finish Baby, Goodbye…

While people are paying attention to me for my 15 minutes, I figured the best thing to do would be to write another list of 20 plays you should know about written by Black and/or queer playwrights 🙂 Why Are You Like This? by Sharai Bohannon A Medusa Thread by Candrice Jones As Is: Conversations…

I always wondered when I’d finally use the name of the blog as a blog post. My instinct was to wait until I knew it would be my last post. And maybe I should’ve held out but now feels like a good moment to return to the very tongue-in-cheek title of this blog. (Also, I’m…
