MAKING A SPECTACLE OF MYSELF
Posing at the George in Rye
Moving out of my comfort zone, as part of the Rye Arts Festival I gave a talk on The Potteries of Rye - in Rye. I'm used to talking to groups as I've been doing it for over ten years now, but doing it in my hometown, to an audience of locals, about a subject they probably knew a bit about was rather daunting. However, The 60+ who where there were responsive, attentive and even laughed at my jokes, so after all it went really well.
Potteries talk in the George
But, I can't rest on my laurels as I have a more daunting task this evening when I'll be interviewing the Reverend Richard Coles in Rye Church. He's written a novel called 'Murder before Evensong' and as a fellow crime writer I've been asked to talk to him about his book, and crime-writing. (I might even touch on his time in The Communards!) Wish me luck!
Reverend Richard Coles.
