I think there are lots of people who are not ready to be shameless. There's this smuch shame in the promotional aspect, and i understand it too. Especially as a playwright, i always have this thinglike, well, I don't want the spotlight on me. And when you made something you're proud of, that why you're making art a little bit too. It's lik, you want people to love it, and you want them to love you, and that's fine. That's what it is. See, you are from the other side of that point. You're saying, like, it's not so bad. It's not soBad.
Molly Lambert is a writer and host of the new podcast HeidiWorld: The Heidi Fleiss Story.
“I think as a writer I always had this thing: I don't want to be out front. I don't want the spotlight on me. I'm not an actor. I want to be lurking in the back with the cast accepting the applause, but I don't want to be the center of attention. And so I think kind of like making peace with like, Look man, it's fine to be the center of attention when you made something you're proud of.”
