Great things happened over the first three months of the year. I have been incredibly creative and productive and wrote two scripts. Now I have to take that energy and let it continue.
I am going out of town next week to Portland to do a workshop with students there. That should be a lot of fun and a great way to connect back to my love of teaching.
I'm hoping it will be pretty inspirational there. The weather usually makes me reflective. I'll wander around Powell's books for a while. I'll eat well, that's for sure. I'll have time with my niece and my nephews. I'll have the chance to get a little healthy. It will be good to be out of LA for a few days.
Sometimes I need that break from everything. It helps me see things in greater perspective.
I'm hoping to get the next draft of this pilot I'm working on finished so I can concentrate on being there with the students and so I can spend the last two weeks of the month writing a House of Cards spec in anticipation for another deadline.
I've been writing a lot lately. And I have to remind myself that writing a lot doesn't mean that the well has to run dry. But if I need to pick up a book or watch a movie for distraction or inspiration, it's still a part of the process.
And I have a lot of writing to do this year. I have a lot of ideas that I want to get out as much as I can.
I had the chance to do some freelancing the past few days and it has drained me. Thankfully, I"m going to Portland to work with students up there and I hope that work will be invigorating. I want to continue to be inspired. I need it.
I am grateful for the chance to stop and access.
I am grateful for love.
I am grateful for a trip out of town to meet my new nephew.
