Make Art. Stop Crying.

Uhg what a week!!! I was in Vegas with my Mom and and cousin Christie when the news went down. I stifled tears. I drank a ridiculous amount of vodka. In the morning I was hung over and sad. We saw Wayne Newton, who is an awesome storyteller, I laughed even though only a few hours earlier I thought I'd never laugh again. On the drive home I actually cried and thought I can't. I cannot do it again. I have been protesting since the 80s. It never gets better I can't do it anymore. let them win. I'm out. Not my bravest or proudest moment.Turns out I was not alone in that thinking. Many people just...

split

by David LeBarron
storytelling, writing thoughts
I'm not going to blame mercury retro because it's been happening for a while, but everything feels split. Not in a crazy skitzo way more just a need to reconcile. For years I have been over-compartmentalizing. It's a sort of self preservation system you use to get you through the bad times. Unfortunately it doesn't serve you for the long haul. A lesson I have to keep relearning. Even now, writing this, part of my brain is like NO this site is for your writing and performing not your spiritual journey!! but how are those two things separate?

I will rewrite but need more time to feel it out, how it can go or where it needs to wander. If you remember that fucking play almost killed me I can't imagine how I'm going to survive the rewrite. When I get dark...

July is weird. It always is for me. Typically the first half of the year I am SO productive but then summer hits and I get all blah nah whatever. Maybe it's the weather. I mean it is friggin hot in LA!!! But this year I am trying something new: I am trying to be ok with my mood and chill-nees. I am tryuing to not beat myself up and say: do more work harder. I think that only leads to frustration. I mean come on t's not like I'm a slacker I wrote Dandy and the queen for the 10 minutes fest, I finished and edited 3 numbers and Mo-mo. I did video for June 4th 3F show. I...

5 Things Friends Say that Writers Hate Hearing

by David LeBarron
writing thoughts

meuhjgWriters work alone. We spend hours clicking keyboards and jotting notes, all by our little lonesome, until the finished project is ready for public consumption. Most of us have learned, the hard way, never to talk about a project before it’s done. It saps the energy you should be saving for the clicking. Talk later-write now. Sometimes, however, it gets lonely and you need to chat with your fellow humans and, often, the only thing you have to discuss is your project because god forbid you stop writing long enough to get laid.
