May 2021

It’s been TWO years since I’ve done any live news updates on my website and, well, a lot has happened. My main news is I have stayed healthy and teaching a lot on zoom.

Thank you Roundabout, MTC, Strike Anywhere and NewYorkRep for keeping me employed during this challenging time. More about the specifics of how I’ve spent this time can be found in my new blog post here. Talking about blog posts, I’m getting back to blogging! I teach my students to not overthink when they write, and so I’m trying to practice what I teach while blogging.

I’m grateful a friend I met in West Virginia at the amazing CATF festival, has been helping, and nudging me (in the kindest way) to make updates. As reentry begins to happen for us all, slowly and safely, I’m going to catch up on my news. This might be a bit out of order but I want to remember my craft, my art, and that while this year has been so very difficult, there is much to be remembered, celebrated, and shared. Thank you Elizabeth for all your help and all those other creative souls that have kept asking me, “how have you been doing?” – Always feel free to drop me a line to let me know how YOU are doing, and know whatever you have done in this stretch of time is ENOUGH. You are enough. Reentry will be hard and different for each all. Do what you need!

Lots of love, Amy
