Welcome to this bumper December episode! I've got my fingers crossed that you'll enjoy it. Listen a-bit-at-a-time or all-at-once, the last of 2021.

What's in this episode? Local shops and why I like them, early reading and writing experiences, influences in my writing journey, nostalgic fiction, competition short stories, winter themed tales, and, I'll read you a terribly written poem! All told in a Hull accent and hopefully entertaining! The stories begin at around 12 minutes in.

 

Letters from 'The summer of '68'

Wrath

Envy

Lust

Gluttony

Wishing

Christmas

Party

Snow

Christmas fun



I hope you enjoy this episode. If you do, please tell your friends and subscribe to be the first to hear when the episodes are broadcast/published/dropped/put-out-there! If you don't, never mind, each to their own! You could still subscribe though, because you might like it better next time! I also hope that you're inspired to explore your own town to find independent businesses, or that you're tempted to visit Hull! No, you won't meet me, but you will find great places to shop, eat and drink, lots of history and some smashing scenery, especially at the marina and river front!

Seasons greetings to all, and see you next year!
