In October of 2022, I had the honor of writing a show for a Halloween event at the beach, where storytellers spun tales for an audience sitting around a bonfire. My stories were brought to life by the incredibly talented actress Nicole Javier, and the event was produced by Eric Vosmeier and David Ruzicka. It was truly a special experience and I’m really proud of what I wrote. So as a special Halloween bonus, I’d like to take you back to that night...
