A Case of Writer's Blog: WORDS WORTH HEARING
http://conswords.blogspot.com/p/words-worth-hearing.html
A Case of Writer's Blog. This was broadcast on Radio Cumbria, along with four others from North Cumbria Scriptwriters. In December 2010. There are some notes and photos elsewhere on this blog. I learnt from my earlier experience and was more careful to make the play fit the criteria. A short play for Radio. Lucy: thirties, Midlands or South East. Jim: thirties, faint North West. Guide: male or female, young. William Wordsworth: slight Cumbrian. Walter Scott: refined Lowland Scottish. Fx one set of footst...

A Case of Writer's Blog: June 2011
http://conswords.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
A Case of Writer's Blog. Sunday, 12 June 2011. The Smell of Chlorine. I have started writing my book! It is to be a memoir of my old headmistress and my East End childhood and education. This may or may not be included, but I will also post it on the site I set up for gathering and sharing stories. About my school years, where I have written about one or two other memories. And what has brought me here? It wasn’t just the chlorine, eye stinging and almost visible- us east end kids used to pee in th...

A Case of Writer's Blog: May 2011
http://conswords.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
A Case of Writer's Blog. Tuesday, 31 May 2011. I hope you're teaching Quality. I have discussed genre elsewhere, and have always said, what matters is quality. Now how do you define Quality? Sarah … came trotting by with her watering pot between those two doors, going from the corridor to her office, and she said, "I hope you are teaching Quality to your students.". . Why else would people pay fortunes for some things and throw others in the trash pile? I am at the age where I can no longer be bothered w...

A Case of Writer's Blog: COUNTRY ROADS
http://conswords.blogspot.com/p/country-roads.html
A Case of Writer's Blog. This is a short play, written for local radio. The gloomy subject matter and difficult SFX meant that it wasn't deemed suitable for broadcast, but I still feel it has something to say about our community. I will be interested to see if it speaks to anyone outside that community! I have removed the titles of, and quotations from, the Country and Western songs so beloved of the Cumbrian farming community- go into any kitchen in our area and the radio will be playing country music!

http://conswords.blogspot.com/2012/10/and-dragons-are-dead.html
A Case of Writer's Blog. Wednesday, 31 October 2012. And the dragons are dead? I sometimes think I write nothing but emails, however I have recently managed to write a short radio play, and I am in the middle of an extra scene for Wigton Theatre Club's panto and a short piece about Kathleen Herbert for my old students' magazine, as well as planning a play for said theatre club's 60th anniversary next year. Early morning mist upon the marsh…. The twisting spirals drawn up by the sun. 2 April 2013 at 03:16.

A Case of Writer's Blog: Deja Vue
http://conswords.blogspot.com/2010/09/deja-vue.html
A Case of Writer's Blog. Monday, 20 September 2010. I have several times had the slightly eerie experience of going to a place and thinking that I'd been there before, and of course I had- in my mind; transported there by writers as diverse as Thomas Hardy, Virgina Woolfe, Malcolm Lowry- and Kathleen Herbert! Kathleen's research was meticulous, which is why she can bring her settings to life. The link below will take you to an interview with her in which she explains her working methods:. Thanks for post...

On anything and everything. Click here or on the clover leaf to visit our website. Thursday, 15 September 2011. We are now on the last leg of our Peruvian tour and have fetched up in this odd but beguiling place. Yesterday we spent a couple of hours wandering round the beautiful and peaceful Santa Catalina monastery. A small town within the town, where the daughters of wealthy and middle class Spaniards "retreated" in the fifteenth century. And who could blame them? What choices were offered them?
