In today’s episode, Angie received her first film festival acceptance and Elizabeth finally got notes back from her development editor, moving her out of the waiting phase. Elizabeth surprised Angie with this week’s topic which effectively boils down to… Do you follow the same kind of process in both grocery shopping and in creating art? Some people shop with lists but create art as if it’s a Jackson Pollock painting, while others create a multistep outline for creative work and yet wander aimlessly through the grocery store while on the phone with their spouse. Is how you do anything how you do everything? Maybe, maybe not. Some people are always list people while others are always creative spheres of chaos. Angie also talks about how judgement, even positive judgment, can get in the way of noticing.
