Storytelling shows typically have three rules: 1) stories must be true, 2) stories must pertain to the theme for the evening, and 3) notes are not allowed (unless they are). Below are my attempts.
I read my short story, Silence, at the 111 Minna St. Gallery in San Francisco.
Apologies to my mother.
There wasn't any particular theme for this show. The only requirement was to talk about, you know, sex stuff.
Is it awkward in here?

Mortified is a show in which people read excerpts from their teenage diaries. I never kept a diary.
Instead, I made crappy horror movies.
