For internal review by subject-matter experts and co-contractors only

Goals/methods/timeline/desired outcomes:

1.  Where is this light you speak of, head on the table, ecstatic then?

2.  Running shoes. 

3.  I have always enjoyed reading:  Voice, syntax, music, lexicon.  Evidence of other minds.

4.  How to take yourself seriously:  Take yourself seriously.  Why is anyone else so much greater than you?  They aren't.  Or they are.  Do your thing.  Your thing.  

5.  A certain loosening.  A certain rigor.  

6.  Breath + movement + observation.  Going away to come back. 

7.  Who do you report to?  Yourself.  No one cares if you make art. 

8.  Community. 

9.  Wake up early-ish. 

10.  Work three hours.
