    The old adage of ‘be careful what you wish for” is now twisted into “be careful who you write for,” and “be careful of what you write.” Filled with sci-fi tropes and twisty twists, Lam pokes gleeful holes into writers who are enamored of themselves as creators of brave new worlds.

    I listened to this fun play on the Gather by the Ghost Light podcast and I suggest you do too because it really brings it to life! Poor Tom Cord gets unwillingly sucked into his own play and has to face the very characters he's created, with dangerous and hilarious results! Brilliant fun!

    I produced an audio version of this play on the GATHER BY THE GHOST LIGHT radio theater podcast. Greg Lam has put together an adventurous play with a delightful twist. As Josie Moon meets her creator, the story takes a shift in tone. Makes you wonder... who is the true villain of the story!? Clever concept with great writing! Would love to see a staged version of this play!
