  • Day 5 of 7: Elevator Pitch

    “The real goal of our pitch is to talk about something you’re excited about and get a feel for how others react to it.” [Prompt and quote by the late, great Scott Dinsmore.]
    Prompt 5: What’s your elevator pitch?

    Rough draft of my elevator conversation:
    Unbiased stranger: What do you do?
    Possible new response: I save money for travel
    I travel the world to gain more gather stories and tell them to people.
    I travel the world and tell stories. I travel the world and write.
    Fewer words: I’m a traveling storyteller. Remember that from last time?
    Sure, that moves a pawn forward, but are they going to take my bishop with some shit like “Wow, you’re young. I remember when I had my head in the clouds too.”?

    And still, am I really a traveling storyteller? Is that even what I want to do? Well, yeah! Those are two of my favorite things combined! That’s my version of, “I drink and I know things”.

    So excited for Game of Thrones S7E1 TONIGHT! And I don’t even have to work!
