Helen hasn't been all that productive since her accident (Season 12), and her oldest friend and ex publisher/boss Joey (from college days in the 1960s) challenges her to try something different. Instead of writing life affirming poems about the natural world, why not create a horror story? Everybody else is doing it, after all...

Episode 4 of Season 13, "The Art of Wittering". I admit, I thought of the title when I was writing Scene 1, and then it took off in an entirely different direction, but I haven't been able to let go of that title. Let me know if you have a better idea, I'd love to hear it.

This episode was written, performed and produced by me Flloyd Kennedy. The music is composed and performed by John T La Barbera, from his album "In the Labyrinth", available on Bandcamp.
