I LOVE your article, Claire! I’m starting to get it why drama is good for you, though my first block would be overcoming my crippling stage fright! Your article is well-written and makes so much sense…..I had wondered why so many comedians suffered from depression!

Hi Claire, Just writing to say thank you so much for all your articles,they always manage to make me feel better as sometimes in this world there is little I can relate to and these newsletters have a voice I completely identify with. Thanks.

Dear Claire…How do i really share or elaborate the worded response – ‘awesome’ – that escaped my mouth, as I read this? How do I really tell you what the word ‘awesome’ springs from? How does one describe this ‘physicality’ that you so wonderfully talk about? I was thinking these thoughts as I thought of how to tell you how touched I was…. And it seemed so important to me that I share that… I felt like a Christmas tree that was all ablaze with bright lights. Not light-bulbs, but more like intensely bright flash-bulbs popping here and there constantly… Your article lighted me up… like a Christmas tree that was dynamically lighted. Thank you(only the tone of the voice would convey what lies within and beneath this word).

Dear Claire….I do enjoy your pieces – they have a great combination of wit and wisdom……
