“I got to see another version of my life here. One in which I was given everything: fulfillment of dreams, my father who loved me. As Prairie, I had none of these things. My life was one hardship after another, and then I met you. Nina saw the whole world. But I saw underneath it. I was pressed down like coal. I suffered. That’s what an angel is. Dust pressed into a diamond by the weight of this world. You crushed me. Before I had the chance to become anything. You crushed me. But you didn’t destroy me. I died and came back to life with something you’ll never have.”

Those early rejections are really tough, especially when all of your friends who you went to school with now have legitimate jobs, are getting married, having children, buying real estate, being adults. And you’re still trying to figure out how to make a living doing the thing you think you love, but you’re not even sure yet because you haven’t even done it. It was a long road of risk and treachery.

britmarling: One year ago today we released @the_oa Part I into the world. We have just finished writing all 8 chapters of Part II and are nearing the end of pre-production where we cast, location scout, build sets, and make costumes with our wildly talented crew. In January we will begin shooting Part II using these eight scripts as our map into the unknown. I feel excited and terrified in equal measure, which makes me think we stand a chance of making something worthy of your time. Thank you for all the thoughtful comments and encouragement you’ve sent our way. It gives us courage to keep making this handmade work about finding hope and community inside dark and complicated times. Away we go ... @z_al @b_arfh 🌁
