Holy smokes. I've been informed (against my will, I might add) that I've had this blog for ten years now. It's amazing to think back to where I was when I began. 2014 December 2014, Winchester, England. I was studying Creative Writing, hoping to someday work in publishing because that was the only thing I … Continue reading 10 Years of Precarious Writer: A Retrospective.
Restless
I have a bad habit of writing blog posts and then not posting them. I think it's because I know my dad reads these. Go away, Dad. You're making me self-conscious. The acting world has been slow of late. Even here in Toronto, where I moved for all the opportunity, I've had one audition in … Continue reading Restless
Let’s Talk Money
This post is inspired by my friend Matt Mort's YouTube series on money! Check out his latest video at the end of this post! I'm a believer in de-stigmatizing conversations around finance. We live in a culture where money is (unfortunately) tied to our sense of self-worth, and as a result, money not only affects … Continue reading Let’s Talk Money
Success.
Tomorrow is the last day to submit for the Canadian Film Centre's Actors Conservatory. Soon, we 2022-23 CFC Actors will have our showcase, and the 2023-24 actors will be chosen and this whole experience will be pretty much over for me, leaving my life irrevocably changed in its wake. Back in September, someone asked me … Continue reading Success.
I Finished An Acting Conservatory
This post was written in March 2023. I graduated this week. As with every other time I ever graduated from something, graduation brought with it excitement and pride, but also grief and fear. Looking back at the last six months, I am ridiculously proud of myself. The conservatory was a challenge which helped me grow … Continue reading I Finished An Acting Conservatory
I Moved To Toronto
It's one thing to be invited to the Canadian Film Centre (CFC), it's another thing to actually go. This is Part 2! Read the first post here: I Got Into An Acting Conservatory. When I was accepted into CFC, I had an apartment, a full-time job, and a chronically anxious chihuahua. Going to Toronto meant … Continue reading I Moved To Toronto
I Got Into An Acting Conservatory
Hello. It's been a while. I should probably update you and write about how completely my life has changed in a very short amount of time. I'll keep this as short as I can, but who are we kidding. I'm wordy. Back in May, I happened across an Instagram post on the CFC's (Canadian Film … Continue reading I Got Into An Acting Conservatory
I forgot to post this last week
I'm a precarious writer and these are precarious times. September's just around the corner and although I barely notice the seasons passing anymore, this turn of season does come with some decisions that I need to make. I love my job. Even when I get groan-worthy assignments, I feel so lucky to have it. The … Continue reading I forgot to post this last week
Life Updates: I’m Still Here
It's been a while. I got busy, but I'm still here. https://youtu.be/ZcLxtLRs2YY
The New Job
I'm sorry I haven't written in a minute, but as you can probably guess from the title, I've been occupied. In January, I was lucky enough to start a new job. My first permanent full-time job, and in the middle of a recession no less (although, it seems there's a recession every year, so perhaps … Continue reading The New Job
