Having had projects be tremendously successful can be a lot of pressure. It is easy to feel like everything I touch has to turn to gold - and I'm convinced this is an easy way to pass up on great opportunities because the story I have to tell won't be sexy enough when people ask what I'm working on. I'm trying not to worry about how much sizzle the story has - and to give myself permission to try stuff that fails without it meaning that I'm a failure. I'm working on the stuff that wakes me up at night or that I can't stop thinking about when I'm in the shower.
