I started that workshop this week, which is kind of fantastic because I'm forced to write and rewrite all of these ideas out of my head. And yep, that's exactly why it's not fantastic
at all. Thankfully, inspiration is there more often than not. There are plenty of places for me to hide and disappear all day. So far, so good.
The flow of my day feels a little surreal. I'm grateful that I've got enough time to write and develop new ideas. Here's what's keeping me up late at night:
- My musical The Billie Holiday Project -- it went so well at at The Apollo last spring that I'm absoutely determined to develop it.
- A dance piece with Francesca Harper called Billie Holiday Deconstructed
- A treatment for an as of yet unnamed TV show
- A short 10 minute film
- A one act play that's all over the place
Next week, I'll hand over 15 pages of dialogue from a theater piece I'm working on about modern black girls. It's kind of like a black feminist version of
The Colored Museum.
