Genetics - a funny old thing. How come I can inherit (so far) five health conditions from my beloved forebears, but be bypassed in the greenfingers department?
I am like the Basilisk where houseplants are concerned. They shrivel.up and die as soon as I go near them.

Challenged myself this past couple of weeks. I've been adapting 'The Glad Giver' as a 20 minute stage play. Not as simple as I thought but far more interesting. I have been able to add visual elements to tell different parts of the story.
Will it ever be produced? I hope so.

Today, we recorded 10 people's thoughts on the murmuration of starlings. We invited people, some writers, some not, to come forward with their original pieces of prose, poetry, whatever. The musicians will come later, bless them.
Thank you, all you creative folk!

Margery Kempe was a a contemporary of Julian of Norwich. We were lucky to have Joanna Swan playing her because she's an incredibly versatile actress. Delighted that The Glad Giver is included in next week's UK International Radio Drama Festival.

As the various edits and extra recordings come in for Boswell's Galloping Farmers, I'm getting that excited feeling again. The contribution by willing creatives & funders! — this is what brings a piece to life. We all want to do justice to the men who came back and the ones who didn't.
