Pen to Paper Episode 1

My podcasts are all about putting Pen to Paper and creating something new and exciting; giving a new angle to fact or generating absorbing fiction. 
I'm Claudette Evans, and putting pen to paper is exactly what I’ve been doing all my life, be it writing songs or stories. I love writing fiction best, although I have been know to turn my hand to poetry, enjoying the challenge of a writing group's prompt as this can take you out of your comfort zone and encourage you to think outside the box. I also use my previous life's skills to record writings and interviews other writers from within one of my three writing groups.
In this first episode I explain why and how my writing journey began, in the hope it will inspire you the listener, to put pen to paper . 
Moving to Wales in 2015, my intention upon retiring from my ‘day’ job as a professional musician, music teacher and sound engineer was to write. However, before embarking on this enterprise, I decided to do some Creative writing courses, to help me prepare and brush-up on the basics of grammar. So, I joined both the Bridgend and Porthcawl U3A writing groups and Bridgend Writer’s Circle, and now I’d like to share with you a selection of stories and poems to encourage you to put pen to paper.
