We don’t talk about female incels enough #bb27

Y’all really need to start cussing people out because you don’t want me to do it #capricorn

Gentle reminder: if you’re an artist looking to move to NYC please DON’T. It’s a lie + a scam and unless you have financial support it is going to be a struggle not worth your time, energy, and sanity. Build community where you are and/or work remotely or freelance. This is Hell

THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS! Doing my best to conjure up some excitement about this trip, this residency, and connecting with artists/institutions from around the world. Fundraising has been a Kafkaesque experience but I'm almost at THE GOAL. gofund.me/3831300ef

It’s my birthday and inflation/gentrification has ruined my ability to do anything fun, plus having a post holiday birthday has always been a chore. amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls…

Finished my series about when I moved to NYC in 2016. Things were a lot different then. I couldn’t imagine trying to move here now to chase my dreams with all these nightmares going on. artmuserx.substack.com/p/beginning-of…

Building from the ground up over on substack, the new frontier. Posting my theatre work over there - which I typically don’t share publicly unless it’s part of a performance. Maybe there are avid readers out there who aren’t just into books and novels??? open.substack.com/pub/artmuserx/…

Finished another play that I workshopped twice before the pandemic. It’s now half a period piece about #metoo and half a piece about the current sexual misconduct crisis

SOS: Feels like my days of survival in NYC are coming to an end; I don’t want to suffer for my art anymore. Unless I sell my screenplay, get a full production of a play (and score an agent), or get an advance for my novel by next year, I’m going to have to leave.

Still doing research on Degas and the exploitation of female bodies. Here I am standing next to the painting that piqued my curiosity rumored to have been originally titled “The Rape”.
