Hi Erin.
I'm going to doing a writing contestfor SAVING JULIET. I'll be sure to let you know when it's up and running.
Oh, and you'll be interested to know that a kids theatre company is adapting it for their production in November. Should be lot of fun!
Hi Suzanne how are you? Did you get to have the release party for Saving Juliet that you were planning?
