As I begin to feel slightly more comfortable about the show it is time to start thinking about raising the money to do it. It's interesting to me that my brain goes, "why should anyone give us money to do a show and festival that we chose and wanted to do?" I guess I have learned over time to not put much value on to the arts, especially if it is m…

Its been getting STAGNANT on the ol' AI pod of late so some time out and away from civilisation was much needed! Cleared the air of my mind and gave me time to get some things in order.

I've fallen into a pit guys... and I'm struggling to climb out, mainly, I think, because I've been beating myself up whilst I writhe around at the bottom naively hoping sympathy will reach its long spindly arm down to drag me out.
