Timeline for DeconstruXion ARTS Thesis

I've been lost in story/script and casting land these past two weeks, both of which have been really fun and rewarding. I had a 20-hour day this past Sunday, in fact: casting from 930am - 700pm, then writing from 9pm - 5am. It wasn't as hard as it sounds actually, because the casting process was so fun and the writing process so rewarding (see what I did there?).

But now it's great to take a brief break from creativity and focus on locking down a timeline that's been kicking around in my head this past month.
