no you-know-what music yet

An illustration from Dickens' A Christmas Carol that shows a portly couple (I'm pretty sure it's the Fezziwigs) dancing at a well attended party to the strains of a fiddler on a raised platform, with everything presided over by a very large sprig of mistletoe in the middle of the ceiling.
Scene from a holiday that nobody should be even be thinking about, let alone singing about yet

If you, like me, are distressed by how far back into the year the holidays have crept, I feel you. So I won’t be mentioning any by name.

BUT if you’re having a get-together in the next month or so for whatever reason, consider booking a custom-made improv class right in your living room! (Or backyard, or dungeon, or private marina. I’m flexible.)

It’s the same super-supportive, low-pressure introduction to improv that I offer in my classes, but tailored specifically to your group. It’s really fun! More importantly, you’ll look like a party-planning genius.

(Full disclosure: This is not really a good fit for big-ass ragers. The ideal group would be between 6 and 12 people who are teenagers or older. But there’s always some leeway!)

If you’re interested email me with the details of your gathering and I’ll give you some options.

Also, don’t forget that the Improv for RPGs Character Workshop is happening this Saturday, and that if you sign up with a friend you get 30 bucks off. That’s really quite the deal.

Okay, that’s it! Please continue enjoying the last part of the year before you really can’t avoid [REDACTED] anymore!

Later,
John
