will resume shortly.

for now I am working on :

the page proofs of The Purple Shroud (out in the US on 25 Sept)

and the film script of State of Happiness (yes, again – maybe this time …)

and dramaturgy/script-editing stuff for Emma Deakin’s and Sarah Robertson’s new plays for Shaky Isles

and finishing off the funding proposals for the Chaosbaby R&D this summer.

and sending out the press listings for the next Up The Junction event, 7.30pm on 24th April at Whirled Cinema – Elif Shafak! Howard Cunnell! Courttia Newland! films by Factory Fifteen! (hosted by me.)

and writing a 150 word flash piece in response to a lovely London picture by a French photographer

and thinking about what I’ll teach for this workshop on 22nd April in Cambridge

and doing a second draft of my own new play

see you on the other side … I will be Writer in Residence at Gladstone’s Library in May. I may sleep for the entire month.

meanwhile, something delicious. UK and US The Purple Shroud covers :
