-> I feel like sometimes being a religious person is like being a writer, in that I will quit, and just not tell anybody. Like, "This is just too hard, I quit for today." And then something inspirational will happen, and like, "I'm back on! I'm back on the wagon!"

!! Tropes:

* AmbiguousEnding: By the end of ''Pilot Program'', Abigail has not come to any firm conclusions about her marriage--neither is she content and settled in their new order, not is she thinking to leave.
-->'''[[https://www.facebook.com/110843833962013/videos/277419540167432 Melissa]]:''' I feel like that it ends where it ends because answering those questions about where the marriage goes changes what the play ''is''. And there's nothing wrong with that--it's just, what I wanted to do with this play is explore the possibility of it happening to ''start''.
* EnforcedTrope: In interviews about ''Pilot Program'', she is consistently asked why Abigail says yes.
-->'''[[https://www.facebook.com/110843833962013/videos/277419540167432 Melissa]]:''' People often ask me, they're like, "Why don't you spend more time on why she [Abigail] says yes and not no?" And I'll tell you straight up: from a dramaturgical perspective, her saying no makes this a very short play.
* IJustWriteTheThing: She describes Abigail as taking of the writing process of ''Pilot Program''.
* MostWritersAreWriters: In ''Pilot Program'', Abigail is a writer, and she uses her blog as an outlet.
