We didn’t get the Arts Vic funding so now we are going to make a show without it. The main thing for me is the time/income conundrum, the curse of every artist, I guess. How can I earn my money to live and make a show and write a novel and study my masters and still have time for the people I love and to keep my house friendly and full of food? But I haven’t really even started to consider it when Luke and Christy come to me with a proposal. They want to pay me to write grant submissions.
I go to Soul Food on Smith Street and drink lemon and ginger tea in front of the maths. After an hour with excel I have done a personal income and expenditure, an Asking for Trouble grant budget and proposed timeline and a weekly time budget for myself. I am bursting with the possibility that I can do everything I want. I love the trams and the overcast sky and the empty teapot and excel. I’m looking forward to the rest of the year
