Sex and Sailing

Episode notes

I had built a life for myself in New York. I was almost a successful playwright. That part of my literary claim teetered on a couple of shows, that were well received, but didn’t make money and the nagging thought that I really had no voice. At least not a distinctive voice. I didn’t have an important voice. I was making all the wrong choices from a pool of bad choices then throwing myself into them to make them right knowing all the while I was making a mistake. This was also reflected in my personal life which seemed no better than the constant need for intimacy and the cruel let down that sex and intimacy are two separate acts, that rarely support one another until you figure it out. Most people never figure it out. Sometimes in the perfect world they might, but that learned lesson was a lifetime away from being learned by me.
