How wonderful to see the Cloud 9 anthology by Kobold Blue Productions listed in this week’s Radio Times podcast recommendations.

At Louth Town Hall with a copy of the book my piece The Ghosts of Winceby features in. Had an interesting chat with someone who told me that Lloyd George abandoned a speech here after being heckled by a Suffragette. Also Jeffrey Archer was declared the winner of a general election for Louth here.

Super fun day at @koboldblueprod.bsky.social showcase of 6 Cloud 9 anthology works @shaunmendum.bsky.social is a true talented legend and has helped create some super fun #audiodrama V much enjoyed listening in the cinema to these bold new slices of audio fun Great to meet Glitchy too!

Nice to get a mention in a review of another play about women’s football in the WW1 era. share.google/ecxHCYLvC8yW...

Going to London next Thursday just after the school I’m working at breaks up. Will have a busy few days as on Friday there’s the launch party of a speculative sci-fi audio drama anthology I’ve written an episode of then the following day I’m seeing two shows both with people I know in them.

Here’s the absolutely amazing poster for The Long Player, a short film that I’ve written. There’s so much that goes into making a film no matter what the length so thanks very much to everyone listed on it.

Not long now until the launch party and subsequent release of this speculative sci-fi anthology. It’s going to be available to listen to on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube and iHeart Podcasts.

Writer on set. Thanks so much to everyone for all the hard work that’s going on in bringing it to life. Now heading back to the city centre and train home. @eveningcatprods.bsky.social

Clapperboard ready for use over the weekend for the short film I’ve written. Looking forward to visiting the set on Sunday too. Lots of talented people involved in bringing words on a page to life. @eveningcatprods.bsky.social

"The Invincibles" on in Dundee @fionaskillen.bsky.social @footballandwar.bsky.social @scotfootballmuseum.bsky.social

Two theatre shows booked in Sheffield and London.

www.gofundme.com/f/the-long-p... As it’s my birthday today it would mean a lot if anyone can donate to the making of a short film I’ve written which is about the power of music to bring two people together. Any amount would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Had a New Year’s Eve 2025 walk down at Gibraltar Point Nature Reserve and the dunes have eroded further back to start exposing a pill box which looks like it has been covered up for decades.

Thanks very much to Steve Connolly and Act Your Age Productions for his great performance of my monologue inspired by the Wizzard song I Wish it Could be Christmas Everyday. youtu.be/UrVQtMeIjIM

If anyone would like to make a pledge, no matter what amount, towards the making of this short film I’ve written I’d be eternally grateful. It’s about two people connecting in a very unexpected way with music bringing them together. www.kickstarter.com/projects/the...

A still from the recording of my monologue Magic Carpets being performed live in Kyiv. It's at about 21.5 minutes into it. A wonderful performance by the actor so thank you for choosing it and thanks also to ProEnglish Theatre of Ukraine for organising the evening. www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9KI...

My play Children of God is having a rehearsed script in hand reading on November 29 in Summertown, Oxford. Please do come along if you can or let anyone know who might be interested. www.oxfordtheatreguild.com/news/our-nex...

Delighted to say my ghost story Past Performance is being read at this event in Liverpool.

There's a new play about women's football in the WW1 era being produced next year. Intriguingly it was written in Italian originally and produced in Milan although it is about a Sheffield team. Great to know that the subject is still retaining interest. www.sheffieldtheatres.co.uk/events/the-l...

Lincoln half marathon.

After the recent film about the Shakers leader Ann Lee here’s another one about an isolated religious community with unorthodox beliefs. Maybe there is scope for theatre works exploring similar ground such as my play Children of God.

The Voices of GAIA is on tonight at The Core at Corby Cube and it includes my piece Magic Carpets which can also be heard on the website. In it a young girl recounts a perilous sea voyage to what she hopes is a safer place to live.

Excited to be part of this again and my monologue goes out on September 22 and Talking Horse Productions is a theatre company based in Missouri.
