<br />
February 17 is "No, You Tell It - Lock & Key"--my foray back into writing--this is a wonderful event. Four of us have written a nonfiction story about an event in our lives with the theme Lock & Key. Mine is titled "Re-releasing the Confetti"--what I wrote about centers around an event that changed the course of my life forever and is a very personal narrative. Then the four of us swap each other's stories and perform the narratives for the audience, so someone will act out my story and I will act out his or hers. I am so excited for this! <b>Show is 2/17, at Jimmy's No. 43 at 7 p.m., 43 East 7th Street.</b><br />

February 18, Valerie will be performing in her short-form improv group Red Tie Mafia at the Triple Crown at 7:30 p.m.<br />
