Sorry If You Had To Re-Confirm This Newsletter
Boring information: I switched newsletter providers because the other one confused me and I hate being confused.
Less boring: this year, the comedy industry was dumb. Clowns covered in bees steppin’ on rakes-dumb.
So I wanted to share fun things I’m trying to do while this industry gets itself together:
Doing lots of live shows.
Cooking and baking. I made an OK carrot soup the other day but the picture is too ugly to share. Please trust me on that!
Writing projects for just myself. Brainstorms of TV shows, random live show ideas, stupid sketches, and revising my feature.
I’m in a stand-up comedy class and we have our showcase soon. I love homework so this has been helpful for me :)
Watching this video because it is representation and beautiful:

So if you’re also feeling like it’s hard to know what to do or how to motivate yourself or how to learn to enjoy yourself even if parts of your life are standing still, you’re not alone. And I hope this newsletter is your proof. Did you watch that video with the dad? Go watch that video. It’s so freaking funny.
Thanks for reading!
