Commissions,
interviews and deadlines have so preoccupied me these past two months that I
have inadvertently got behind with my blogging commitments. So let me enlighten
you as to what I have been up to.
In that most
professional of glossy magazines, Hampshire Life, my interviews with the
sparklingly talented Pippa Blake, Eileen Cooper and Peter Lloyd have, I hope,
provided riveting reading as well as an insight into the creative process of
each inspiring artist.
In addition,
features about Twinning Associations and entrepreneur, Mike Clare, have graced
the pages of Buckinghamshire Life whilst Hertfordshire life carried my article
about the fascinating town of Baldock in their February edition.
Apart from
contributing to Archant’s glossies, my interviews with Emma Smith about her
charity work in Honduras and Guatemala, along with Newcastle United FC’s Gael
Bigirimana, have appeared on Prayer for Today’s new online magazine.
Much as I
love working from the comfort of my study, where I try not to be distracted by
my pets and the countryside, the occasional press invitation is much
appreciated. And so it was I recently headed for the Five Arrows Hotel in
Waddesdon. Let me assure you, the champagne was delightful. The canapés, too,
out of this world. Though I did manage to refrain from consuming both for long
enough to tour their latest bedrooms which were simply stunning. And how lovely
to bump into BBC Radio Oxford’s charming Bill Heine that evening. In an attempt
to persuade me back onto his Sunday show, he paid me the most intriguing
compliment. Do take a look at the home page of my website to read what he said
about me.
Finally, I
should remind you of Lady Margaret Gosworthy-Pringle’s monthly blog for
Hampshire Life. How she enjoys sharing her opinions. Honestly, I can hardly
imagine how she does it . . .
