I had some things I had to fix. It took me 14 years to do it. But it was never really fun back in the day to work with directors who were a lot older and were like authoritarian and talking to you like that.

Those people who look so together. They’re as insecure as anyone. Maybe more so. You’re as smart as any of them.

He holds me. I am his in a way he probably isn't even aware of.  Boys shouldn't know what power they have. They would panic probably or just mess things up. But boys are who you give yourself to. Not your parents or your teachers or your "future". You give yourself to a boy.  And then you go for long walks at night and think about them and wonder what they will do to you in the end.

It was weird because my first couple stories had been so easy. Now it was like, the more you did it, the harder it became. But in another way, it was addicting. It was like gambling, every time you'd start another one you'd think this time I'm going to get it right....

I said I looked like a dork and she said that was true, but there was something classic about my dorkiness. I was so open and my awkwardness and embarrassment were so clear and understandable. I was extremely watchable.

This is where I want to be now, alone with myself. Because I know that something has happened to me tonight, something that I’m not going to understand at first, something I need to just absorb and think about and get used to.  This is going to be hard for me. I can’t control this. I can’t stop what it will do to me.  But I want it. I want to be inside it, to feel it, forever.
