Episode 185- The Night Before By Siobhán Murohy

Persistent and Nasty

It’s spooky season. We will be platforming the writers who submitted to our spooky season call-out. A mixture of scenes, monologues, and stories all with an element of the macabre about them. Our call-out was open to women, trans, and non-binary voices. The second story from Siobhán Murphy is The Night Before performed by Emilie Patry.

In my free time, I primarily write fantasy and dystopian fiction and English language and educational content. I've written two radio plays available on Soundcloud.
