My goal is to write 11 short scripts based on the themes with in the grant period. This funding would allow me the support to be able to dedicate time to writing the script and purchasing the resource, i.e. paper and ink. The goals is to write three to scripts per month, to edit those scripts and have them ready for recording by the end of six months. I have a track record of completing projects that I have started with deadlines including publications, performances, and installations. During the 2020 lock down I revamped my live performances to a online production and began to tell story in the third month of the lockdown. I recently worked within a publishing deadline with the book How to Heal the Divides. as a columnist I have had to work within newspaper deadlines. I will know I have reached my goal with a final product of 11 written scripts. I would measure that by the product being uploaded in a file that could then be ready for the WE the World 11 campaigns and for further future distribution.
