Este fin de semana me senté a mirar mi práctica desde otro lugar.

No solo pensé en lo que quiero crear, sino en el tiempo, los recursos, las decisiones y las acciones que necesito para poder hacerlo.

Poner todo sobre una mesa hizo visibles muchas cosas que tenía dando vueltas en mi cabeza.

No salí con todo resuelto.
Salí con una dirección más clara.

Y por ahora, eso es bastante.

“Because I’ve been asked to share the weight. “

Save the Dates to the next events you can hear me speak at for various capacities.

September 19th, 2026 L.I.T. Hartford Book Festival
By Enfield Poet Laureate NZima Hutchings

I will be presenting as one of their featured authors. “History Is Waiting” is a reflective speech asking us what we wish to leave behind.

Personally, my journey with @follownzima has been filled with meeting amazing artist and having the opportunity to speak with wonderful audiences. I encourage you all to look at her work @everykindaladynzima ! To learn and work alongside her.

Month of October with F.L.Y. (First Love Yourself Inc) And @themanhoodtree
On October 21st, 2026

This series of Domestic Violence focused events will reflect and allow community members to listen to stories and hear from people who have experience or creative reflections for the healing journey for those who deal with violence in their lives.

Laugh will be speaking at the event sharing a segment from “The Flag I Sing To” that reflects the Love and Trust that needs to be cultivated in a home to be safe for the future. What happens when the flag we sing to is one that waves for Love?

November 4, 2026 Breaking Even Cohort 1
The Flag I Sing To

As an awardee of The Greater Hartford Capacity Building Grant through @assets4artists , @therooftoppoets will be guiding 4 producing artists and their casts through a 10 week production readiness program. Each artist has their own means in which this program “Breaks Even” but the main focus is selling seats and making back the original investment. As tickets page become live you can follow to stay informed.

This is just 1 of 3 cohorts that The Rooftop Poets LLC will be supported on producing. The goal is building a sustainable bridge for artist from learning how to create to now selling seats for your own productions. It takes time, space, and practice. Which is what we will be learning how to creating while Breaking Even!
