Minnesota Update

Dear family,

I'm writing to you from New York City.
From Frederick Cafe, to be exact, in the heart of Harlem--my old stomping ground.
I depart at 2PM
But am using this, my last morning (a cool gray day--my favorite), to get some writing done.

It has been a good five days.
A productive fun-filled visit.

Monday night's concert was a success.
People seem excited by FIVE POINTS
(by the IDEA of FIVE POINTS)
And I'm already feeling the "finish it already" pressure from my agent/collaborators/NYC theater community.

Rehearsals for AND SHE WOULD STAND LIKE THIS were wonderful.
It is ALWAYS a pleasure to be in the rehearsal room with David and Deadria--my absolute favorite director and producer.
The presentation next Thursday should be OUTSTANDING.

My bags are packed.
Stuffed to the brim with WINTER WEAR.
Coat, hats, gloves, scarves and sweaters.
I will certainly have to invest in MORE, but it's a good start.

Thank you so much for your continued support
Especially in this my ADVENTURE year
My throw caution to the wind year
My GAME CHANGING year
Your words of encouragement
Your prayers
Are appreciated.

Much love to you all,
H
