Writing And Giving Voice To What I

When I Was Younger I Was Much More Polemical And Didactic, Much Less Trusting. Inherently My Own Vision Of The World Would Weave Its Way Through The Characters. Also, My Concerns Are Changing. What Happens Is You Write A Few Plays And Get Boxed Into Some Idea Of What Your Concerns Are And What You're Supposed To Be Writing About.

It Seems To Me There's This Tyranny That's Not Accidental Or Incidental, To Make Women Feel Compelled To Look Like Somebody They're Not. I Think The Effort Is Being Made To Get Us To Turn Our Time And Attention To This Instead Of Important Political Issues.

When I Was Younger I Felt Very Disempowered, Very Disappeared. I Felt Worthless, Like I Had No Right To Exist. I Think A Good Part Of My Life Was Spent Recovering From That. Pulling Myself Out Of That.

I Think That It Was Really Rock-and-roll Stars, Women Who Were Breaking Boundaries With Their Bodies And Their Voices And Their Beings And Their Music. I Spent A Lot Of Time At Concerts,just Watching Women Rock Out. They Expressed So Much Of What I Believed Could Be Possible.

Cherish Your Solitude. Take Trains By Yourself To Places You Have Never Been. Sleep Out Alone Under The Stars.
