Jodi came over this afternoon and we spent a while with one of my rehearsal puppets practicing some overt manipulation. We’ve got an audition tomorrow and figured it would be a good idea to brush up. The thing is, that we’ve performed for so long together that we got back into the groove really fast, which I know is totally misleading us about how the audition will go.

No. I won’t tell you what I’m auditioning for yet — I’m strangely superstitious that way — but I will ask for you to send good vibes my way from 11 - 4.

Afterwards, we all went out to dinner with Jonathan who is heading down to New Orleans for a film shoot. It was a good day today, all in all.

It’s been a while since I’ve managed to have all my submissions actually, you know, submitted at the same time. There are no stories waiting for me to write a cover letter at the moment. It feels good.

It also means that I need to finish a new story, like say, the 12,000 word monstrosity sitting in the works in progress stack.
