I still get emails from the film and animation festivals that cancelled me. One, "Tricky Women," used to be a women's animation festival but now, "brings together trends and tendencies in independent animated filmmaking by women and/or genderqueer artists."

Women and/or genderqueer artists.

The world of animation and film I came up in and competed in and won in, is no more. All these awards I have in my cabinet are from a world that no longer exists.
