It may have
been a couple of months since I last communicated via this blog, but the
intervening weeks have been packed with literary based activity.
Where to
begin? Oh yes, the Inspiration to Write workshop (mentioned previously) at St
Francis Hospice was a huge success. An enthusiastic bunch of writers gave their
all and, indeed, one has since joined my Regular Writing Group. Actually, I
held another such workshop just this week and was delighted to inspire more
writers whilst simultaneously raising money for the Hospice. And just to keep
you up to date, I’m in talks with said establishment to begin a Caring Words
group for patients but more on that, I hope, next time.
I also recently
organised a fun packed evening for a few learners who attended my workshop at
the Thame Arts and Literature Festival last year. This time we focussed on
mirth and a jolly time was had by all.
I have, of
course, been busy writing as well as teaching. Buckinghamshire Life carried my article
about Chiltern Writers in their February issue and an interview with children’s
author, Nick Halliday, featured in the March edition.
Not that I’ve
been confined to the home since I last reported. For I spent another fascinating week at The
Lady HQ producing the Daily Round Up of news for their website. In addition,
they asked me to pop over to Tate Modern one morning to review the Lichtenstein
retrospective and my write up appeared in the 1 March issue along with a
financial piece I co wrote with their staff writer. And you thought I didn’t
know about such high brow stuff, I bet.
Now it’s time
to crack on. Though I should mention that if you fancy a titter, do check out
Lady Margaret Gosworthy-Pringle’s latest missive. Tardy tenants and dishevelled
shrubbery, no wonder she’s upset . . .
