Lola Blanc Instagram – I feel so lucky that I get to have these memories from @fantasiafestival to conjure up and tell boring stories about when I’m old and washed up and reminiscing about the good old days. It was incredibly nerve-wracking reading my first piece of fiction out loud on a stage next to such formidable writers in the Haunted Reels collection, and screening @pruningfilm in the most insanely good shorts block I’ve ever seen, but was it worth every second of anxiety? Yeah duh. Love my people, love this community. I even love that awful Airbnb because of who was in it with me. Thanks for taking me in and humoring my outfits, friends. And go buy the book!
