Twitter, have I ever told you the story of the time I sent someone a potato for Valentine's Day? 🙈

“All good artists suffer for their craft” “All the greats had a mental illness” “Psychiatric meds will dull your creativity”
Okay, Twitter, considering the Bad Takes this week, I want to hear the WORST writing advice you've ever been given.

While world peace or something equally wonderful would have been my preferred accomplishment of the evening...I instead transformed my ugly pink cell phone case to a steampunk Harry Potter motif. If nothing else it is some type of step forward.

I am amazed that anyone takes the stance that minimum wage jobs are starting points for teenagers. So you only want coffee, gas, and all retail shops open from 5pm-8pm and on weekends?

You know what bugs me most about ADHD research? I mean aside from the sexism, racism, classicism and the fact that it was considered just a childhood thing that people grow out of? So... you know what bugs me fifth about ADHD research? The framing.

I'm about 2 to 3 months into consciously deciding to do nothing on top of work and family and self healing. (As opposed to trying and failing at having hobbies or writing a new show.). It's a bit odd. I still introduced myself as a theatre person-ish this week to my new RMT. 😬
