I’m so used to taking on way more production work. I’m basically feeling panicked over all the production office work I haven’t coordinated or props I haven’t picked out. But we’ve hired people to do those things this time. Amazing people to handle those problems. But it still feels weird. And wrong. I guess now I’m supposed to just be …directing?

Before, I always had built in excuses for why I wasn’t more focused on directing – I was wearing a million hats! But now I have no more excuses. So if I’m terrible, then that means I’m just a terrible director. No more hiding it behind other work.

Made a lot of headway with cast deals today but still they haven’t quite closed. Getting so close though. The actors have started talking with me, which I think is a great sign.

What do directors who actually get rehearsal time even do with their actors? Maybe one day I’ll find out.

Heard some phantom cries from my daughter last night. Not sure when that will stop.
