This week’s column in the Middleboro Gazette is about fear and overcoming it. For me I discuss the medium to lowgrade stagefright I experience but mostly this article is about my wife.

Reminder that I’m playing this weekend.

For the last two years she’s been a member of a local chapter of Toastmasters International – a group for people who want to improve their public speaking skills. The Gateway Gabbers can be reached at gatewaygabbers@yahoo.com. They meet on the 2nd & 4th Wed of each month from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. The meetings take place in the upper offices of Cirelli’s near the Middleboro rotary.

I think the trick is to pretend the audience is your husband and he’s watching a TV show he really, really, really likes.
