I think I need to apply for a for real residency. I need someone to make the dinner! I need a little group. I need like a week. I need the grandparents to watch my daughter. I need nature.

Also can’t believe that LG quote - A-fucking-mazing.

yes, this is great--"someone to make the dinner" is so real. the Sustainable Arts Foundation is a great resource for finding residencies--they've given a ton of money to residencies who are trying to become more family-friendly--and often that means shorter residencies (i.e. a week rather than a month!) and sometimes funding to offset the cost of childcare while you're away. you can read more here: https://www.sustainableartsfoundation.org/residencygrantees/
