It’s been a busy time for speaking and teaching. In August I led a workshop on blogging and telling stories with the hugely inspiring Young Women’s Trust. In September I began my third year lecturing on the International & Digital Journalism MA at the University of Salford. In October, the Manchester Literature Festival took overContinue reading “Autumn/Winter 2016-17”

Spring/Summer 2016
The big news: I’m happy to say we’ve received a significant 2-year grant from Arts Council England to vastly expand The Real Story, the creative nonfiction project I run via writing organisation Openstories. We’ll be creating a new web portal full of CNF resources for writers and teachers, expanding our successful The Real Story: LiveContinue reading “Spring/Summer 2016”
Autumn/Winter 2015
The 10th anniversary edition of Manchester Literature Festival was a grand affair that stretched through October into November and filled the city with an eyewateringly impressive slew of poets, fictioneers, short storyists and nonfictionistas. This year I hosted more events than ever before, including (deep breath) May-Lan Tan and Mai al-Nakib, Jami Attenberg and Liza Klaussman, doingContinue reading “Autumn/Winter 2015”
Spring/Summer 2015
It’s been a busy time. Yeah, I know I always say that. But come on, really, cut me some slack here: Check out this rundown of some of the projects I’ve been working on in the last six months (plus.) (Oh god, has it been that long since I updated this?) (Yes.) For my ownContinue reading “Spring/Summer 2015”
Winter 2013/14
So I skipped summer again. I’ve just checked back through my archive and I haven’t managed to write a quarterly autumn update since 2009. It’s no surprise given how busy my autumns usually are; most of the organisations, clients and projects I’m involved with have something big happening at that time. But it’s good toContinue reading “Winter 2013/14”
Summer 2013
As usual, I’m just getting around to writing this quarterly post at the turn of the season. The summer is most definitely over, and what a fantastic one we’ve had, with bountiful sunshine and lots of long, lazy days outside. We managed to get to Suffolk for a week just before school started, and fellContinue reading “Summer 2013”
Spring? 2013
It may be mid-May, but is it really spring? There’s snow on the forecast as I write this. NOT FAIR. So here’s my news. I’m running a blogging workshop at Castlefield Gallery on Tuesday 28 May at 6:30pm and at time of writing there are a few places left. It’s for beginners and more experiencedContinue reading “Spring? 2013”
Winter 2012/13
Once again, I’ve been so busy that a whole season has escaped me. Autumn 2012 whooshed past in a blur. It was a good kind of blur, with lots of interesting stuff happening inside it, but the blur didn’t leave much time for blogging. Here’s some of what I’ve been up to since last summer:Continue reading “Winter 2012/13”
Summer 2012
It’s been a busy (and wet) summer, but it hasn’t been all work around here, as you can see from this photo of St. Lunaire, Brittany. But when I haven’t been chasing my kids around tidepools, I’ve been busy working on a very big project. I started The Manchester Blog Awards seven years ago, andContinue reading “Summer 2012”
Spring 2012
Hello! I’ve suddenly got lots of interesting things happening this spring. It’s so good to be getting out and about after the long dark winter, which is still looking very dark and glowery from where I’m sitting, but it surely can’t be here for much longer. Right? Putting my Openstories hat on: On March 27thContinue reading “Spring 2012”
