In other news, I have two scenes left to edit for Sense & Sensibility, then ep 10 to pull together, and then it is DONE. @nothingbutroars.bsky.social #AudioDrama

Admitting defeat to the long covid demons this morning and having a rest day on the sofa rather than heading out to the double header at Franklins Gardens #wrwc. Need my spoons for a big day at work tomorrow… #OhNoIDont

10:30am. I have already:
- finished editing 190 photos
- done promo for my audio production @nothingbutroars.bsky.social
- updated website
Now on to watching the Lions test, before tackling audio tech changes for the outdoor theatre show I’m co-directing.
What is this “rest day” you speak of?

PHOTOGRAPHERS - if you were the little screw on adapter that goes into the bottom of your camera to attach it to a harness, where would you hide?

Jane Austen died on this day in 1817. In her too short 41 years on this planet, she wrote six of the greatest novels in the English language, laid the groundwork for the modern romance, and gifted us with some of the best quotes ever. Pour one out for Jane today.

Are you 16-30 years old with a passion for writing? Does the sight of a blank page simultaneously excite and terrify you?

I don't want to listen to a robot read a book. I want to listen to a real human being. This is an abomination.

Actor and reenactor Ste Applegate popped round for a headshot refresh yesterday. Such a lovely chap, and a natural in front of the camera 😊

Derngate looking gorgeous. I love how versatile the space is - with even more unique events to come!
Flashback to our first ever Discos For Grown Ups event last week! It surprised many people that our Derngate auditorium can be transformed into all sorts of configurations - including removing the chairs in the stalls to make a flat floor perfect for a disco party!

Just watched Black Mirror: Common People, so will now only be watching fluffy Jane Austen adaptations for the rest of the day as a soul cleanser. NO MORE SAD THINGS.

Have been avoiding audio editing - not sure why, perhaps it felt like an insurmountable task? Anyway, picked it up again today and now all 10 episodes of Sense & Sensibility are rough cut. Few pick ups to go, but then it’s on to music and sfx! July launch doesn’t seem so scary now…
