Wow Cali! what a fantastic story! I can really vibe with how it feels when people don’t understand why my movies aren’t being made and why every thing is just taking so long and I think you really encapsulated what we often experience as creators in this newsletter. This donkey story is really a beauty! I must say that I was really surprised by the turn it took but at the same time was delighted by how it made so much sense. Thank you for sharing it. Really appreciate the weekly encouragement I get from you. Lots of love

As a writer of books and movies, every word resonated! Starting with 'As writers we take a lot of knocks...' It was one of those days that I really needed to hear this simple, beautiful tale of dusting oneself off and working our way out of holes. Thank you.
