I was taking additional time away from the session to see how they felt my service delivery and although that’s important, I felt selfish. Furthermore, I was worried that they might say something negative…

do my memoir because, it is the paper that I had the closest emotional connection with, and therefore I felt like I could do the best work on. By this same token I chose to write a screenplay because I felt the closest connection film. Having a connection to my work helps me to bring it to life, so I didn’t want to do anything that I wasn’t passionate about.
