the next last game
The Last Game: Heather Helinsky, who has been dramaturging this script, sent an email to check in. I agreed to have a new draft by April 7. Infrastructure: Because Heather asked me to send her a synopsis, I now have a synopsis for “The Last Game,” and added it to the portfolio.
yer basic
Infrastructure: Got a rejection. Everything Looks Like A Face: Meeting at Nautilus with Elizabeth, Ben and Greg, the music director for the reading next week.
running to stay in place

Harumph. Everything Looks Like A Face: Worked with Elizabeth to refine/clarify the draft and sent it...

scarcity

it’s aliiiiiiiive
Erika: watched a lengthy video on using first and second derivatives to graph a function, and did some problems. Infrastructure: Got a note to say the site for CrystalCon is live. A reading of Frankenstein Incarnate, Skyped from Minneapolis to Seattle, will kick off the conference.
brainstorming, docketing
Infrastructure: Sent a script to a competition. Everything Looks Like a Face: Did some thinking about how the characters pay their bills. Mother Antonia: Organized some of my notes from Thursday.
