I get to do my work. This is the part I love. Running the show. No collegial stopping. No collegial commenting. Everyone moving through it and creating, no matter what happens (barring physical injury) and no matter what we're given. We get to see where it goes when a spit, a curve, a slider or a split-finger fastball is thrown. The editing portion while I'm inhabiting this character is over...until I get offstage, of course, and think to myself, "That didn't quite work. I'll try something different tomorrow."
Sweet candy Christ that makes me happy!

Penn Gillette calls this part of performance-polishing "flight time." You wanna be a pilot, you gotta actually fly the plane, and the more you fly, the better pilot you become.
ReplyDeleteAnd remember, from the pilot's point of view, any landing you can walk away from is a good one.
