I forgot to say at the time (it was the day after a big work crisis), but last month, I was one of the readers at
Letters You Never Sent, a new night dedicated to the "letter as a dying form of storytelling, reconciling our love of popular culture and great literature".
That night's theme was letters written as teenagers to our idols and mine was a hormonally charged love letter to PJ Harvey. Luckily, it was held in a very dark and sweaty basement so we could get into that teen vibe extra fast.
I loved all the other readers - especially Sean Cody Mahoney's lyricism, Jack Scott's wit and Ben Brooks, who turned the lights off and freaked us all out with his brilliant letter to Eminem.
Read a review of the night
here, or come along to the next night, letters you'd send to yourself as a teenager, on September 22nd. The venue hasn't been announced yet, but follow
Zakia Uddin to find out more.
