VICTORY!!!
So, for almost three years, now, I haven't really used my work room. I've been sewing in other locations, for various reasons.

My directoral debut!
So, I've been dabbling in a little directing. Des Hussey and I have co-directed a remount of "Pyewacket", the story of a little orphan girl and her creepy rag doll, who only comes to life when none of the grownups are around. It's always been my favourite Spectral script, and it was an awesome experience ( Read more... )
