What are you doing this Valentine's day?
Saying 'boo' to love and coming to an online ghost-writing workshop?
All year is a Goth holiday if we want it to be, no need to save it up for Halloween!

This play is beyond scary, causing many screams with a packed audience, who didn't know what to expect.
Also, I got to chat with Mark Gatiss, who sat two seats from me on the front row, and he said that he did provide the creepy voice in this audio infused play.

Special thanks to Dr Alessandra Pino for inviting me to this fabulous morning house party, promoting Scream 7.
My only disappointment was that it ended very soon and I had to go back to work.
