For me, there’s a balance of emotional and creative energy, and when overwhelmed with an emotional event, usually the creative output declines. Which is what happened this week, and there’s really nothing tangible I might disclose on the writing front.

Dynamics are shifting in powerful ways, however. I had an extremely intense conversation with someone I never expected about their struggle with letting go of outcome. Very, very profound stuff, and purposeful. The reason I mention the dialog is because what seemed like a chance encounter reaffirmed my sentiment about coincidences. In which this writer disputes such things exist.*

This week I resume the screenplay. The deadline for Nicholl’s approaches fast.

*Yes, Ian, the phrasing is a nod to you.
