Yesterday I feel like I had a wonderful, yet terrifying realization: we are not as close to finished writing this script as I had thought. My partner brought to my attention and wrote a scene that we had sketched out in our notes, but had not yet written. Not only that, we've written well past the point that I had thought of using that scene. So we had to discuss where this scene would happen, and IF this scene would happen.
But she wrote it, and I loved it. She has captured the vision and molded it and shaped it right along with me. That's a new experience for me; sharing the creation of art. I would have thought that it would bother me to have someone else writing a story that I'm working on. I would have thought so, but it didn't. It was exciting, it was happy, it was a relief.
I'm NOT in this alone. She's NOT just along for the ride. This is now her baby, just as much as it is mine and now I know it, even though the likelihood is, that it has been so for quite a while. Now, I am sure and it's a relief.
