Poetry, Videos and Waiting

Those of you who keep an eye on our YouTube channel will see that there was a video that went up today but then disappeared. Well the video was a preview of the videos that are coming your way from The Writer's Forum.

On Saturday we held an afternoon of filming for poets. I was pleased to welcome seven fantastic poets along to Fort Perch Rock, New Brighton where we filmed their work.

So what does this filming mean? Well we are going to be presenting videos over the coming weeks and months.

Now for those of you who think that this filming sounds even vaguely glamourous, we were plagued by helicopters, planes, and a lot of waiting whilst the camera was being set up and people were being filmed.

Despite the waiting around most people seemed to enjoy themselves and it looks like we will have some great videos for you. So keep your browser locked to The Writer's Forum!
