MUSING #28 - I am a Writer

MUSE: hosting a zoom reading of my screenplay. 

MUSING: It was amazing. My friends that read it and gave me their feedback are amazing. I feel accomplished while knowing there is still so much to do. I feel proud of what I’ve done so far and excited to be able to dig in deeper to the characters and my comedic voice. I feel more like a writer each day and less like an imposter when I say I am one. I still haven’t been paid for my writing work, but I am a writer. I am dedicated to the practice, the confusion, and the self-analysis that comes from considering the human condition... which I think is inevitable in the writing process, even when doing sketch. I feel like my life is actually coming together into the dream I’ve kept myself from wanting too much. I’ve been too scared that it’d feel wrong or empty, like a never ending pit that needs to be fed with more and more and more. But instead I feel complete in this moment, having done the work today and wanting to do more tomorrow; having been the best me I could be today, and believing that I’ll do so again tomorrow. I am Claire, and I am a writer.
