Nice to hear from you. Hope something comes from those pitch meetings. Keep making your own opportunities.
Interesting you referred to writing about the past as an tsunami. Self-reflection on this time is tough. I recently looked back at myself during the bomb and sep this summer and I felt like I was looking at a different person. It's a very unreal time. At times it felt like I wasn't behind the wheel.
I'm posting now in "Surviving the Big D". Stay in touch.
