Diana Burbano: I had a play development opp yesterday with a bunch of people that I love, and it was like they ripped my heart out of my chest and threw it on the floor and then jumped up and down on it a little bit, so I just want to put that on the table. I'm really raw about the whole playwriting thing, but I think that's okay because that's what we want to talk about, right? It's such a big topic. What was this year like for you? Jennie?
