Subject:	Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate's Daughter!
Time:	10:04 am.
Mood:	excited and nervous.
Music:	Another Opening, Another Show.

The next two weekends, the Voyagers Shakespeare Company presents the romantic comedy, Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate's Daughter, by William Shakespeare - and a dozen or so other people, including me.

I'm directing a cast of 18 home-schooled students, ranging in age from 6 to 18 years old, as we tell a bit of the story from June, the month before Romeo met Juliet!

You should come see it, if you're in the area. (And if you are thinking that you would be in the area for Arisia, but therefore unable to come, know that there will be other folks coming to see the show from Arisia, and rides are likely available.)

Also... it's not (yet) too late if you wish to advertise in the program - drop me a note or reply here to let me know if you want details.

We'll also be making a DVD of the show.

We're performing at 530 Main Street, Acton, Massachusetts.

Mood:	happy.

Happy Christmas!

I got many lovely presents (Happy Together!!! The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp!!!) and I hope you did too.

For Yuletide, someone AMAZING wrote me an entire 10,00 words about Rood of An growing up. Three Gifts. None of you have read the books, though, so you'll never know how perfect the story is. But I do, so I am quite happy.
