RSVP for Free Zoom Reading of My New Play "Circle Forward" on June 12!

As part of the “First Peek” Series of new play readings by members of the Playwrights Union, my play “Circle Forward” will have its very first public reading (virtually on Zoom) on Saturday June 12 at 3:30 PDT (US). Tickets are FREE — just RSVP/register HERE and you’ll be sent the Zoom link just before the reading.

“Circle Forward” synopsis: When a 15 year old boy claims to be the reincarnation of a writer's late husband, she must come to terms with her version of the past. The reading will run about 1 hour 15 minutes, with a short talkback afterwards for those that wish to stay a few minutes and ask questions or offer constructive feedback.

The “First Peek” series is for brand new plays, all works in progress, so know that you’re seeing and hearing an early draft, and your presence and feedback really matters!

Here’s my amazing cast: Meeghan Holaway, Catia Ojeda, Max Torina, and Caitlin Crawley.

RSVP for this free reading today! You can watch in your pajamas! (And check out the other four plays in this year’s “First Peek” series — all wonderful, all different!)

In QCode's New Horror Anthology Podcast Series "Bad Vibes!"

Check out QCode Media’s new narrative podcast series “Bad Vibes: The Ultimate Horror Anthology For the Ears!” This very cool company has created lots of immersive audio storytelling experiences, and “Bad Vibes” is their newest series to be released. There are several fun stories here — all short, all free, all suspenseful. I love the way they make the most of the audio experience to draw you into the story.

Listen for me in episodes titled “After The Beep” and “Don’t Leave Me.” Also found on #ApplePodcasts. Enjoy!

Here’s a synopsis: Fresh from participating in her first street protests, 80-year old Eleanor Pender McAdams seems an unlikely subject for an FBI investigation — but who really has the upper hand?
