The Literary Festival organised by Malcolm Angel of Gullivers Bookshop went brilliantly well. There were so many fascinating speakers and some lovely and historic settings used all around the town. My poetry workshop was very well attended and I enjoyed it tremendously. It was fun – lots of laughs – and also much excellent writing was produced. It’s amazing what we can write in a short space of time. Being put under a little bit of pressure can work wonders – deadlines are useful! Thank you to everyone who attended. I’m looking forward to next year’s Lit Fest in Wimborne.
My ideas usually come not at my desk writing but in the midst of living.
