My North West Publicity Tour
In September I spent a whirlwind day in the North West promoting “To The Grave” (St. Catherine Productions inaugural film.) I had a chat with the lovely John Gilmore on BBC Radio Lancashire, discussing both the film and the festival circuit. I then dashed over to Manchester City Centre to speak at the TiE Pioneering Women event. What an inspiring group of businesswomen! Very honoured to be invited.
Lascivious Grace
