for my index cards

 It looks like I left my cards at home, so here is what I finished

 

bad movies are good medicine: Eureka, I should take all of these longer quotes and put them in a note section, then just highlight the movies. Like I can summarize what people are saying but then have the academic stuff in the notes

Weapons as Cinema Therapy for Survivors of Abuse

 

 

work on: 

Batman Returns is a Christmas Rom-Com Movie

Finding those film tarot cards

 I am close enough to working on the mythos part of the book

Followed by fairy tales

I realize I want to bring in the things like mental rom coms into the February time

Maybe order the book by calendar, but choose your own adventure throughout

For Monday Nov 17

 Use the light the dark book of writers using a favorite to discuss even deeper what that part means for them. That mine would be the first poem in the cineaste.


Do other writers noticed that the idea for something that they will write has already manifested for a while, the slow river that teaches you about what water can be. And I think also the uncovering out of the Curiosity of how that thing has moved you to wish to express it. So I like this idea of going to a piece of art that has inspired us for some reason and figuring it out why figuring out even our own artistic process

Middle failures

 I find the right book which tells me I'm on the right path because this is the point where doubt will creep in. I'm also aware of it, so I know how to trick it. I just have to look at everything I've written and know it feels right to combine, braid, revise.

I'm going to place all of the Poetry stuff together, call it a path for poets or people who wish to be writing poetry again


Maybe that's the question. Don't you wish you could write poetry again? I mean who hasn't written a poem

Sequences

 I think it would be interesting to say about leaving the corporate world, all of those things about and around the corporate world say it felt like I was working at McDonald's again. Then move into the McDonald's essay. But I also think including something about Chili's and about how it was a great time in my life is important 1995


Have 1995 be that section about working at Chili's
