I saw an early R&D version of @tonytwopints MAN IN THE RAIN and loved it. At the @BrocJackTheatre from 19th Nov - it's a deep and lovely and quiet and hilarious.

Excited to share news that my new collection 'Father Myself', which explores grief & growth after losing my Dad to COVID, will be published by @NineArchesPress in February 2025
Proud of these poems & to have a second collection with wonderful Nine Arches
This one's for you Dad
February 2025 sees publication of Father Myself by Norfolk-based poet and playwright @jamesliammcd - his second collection explores his father's complex illness and death & how McDermott had to learn how to father himself.

Because the world is utterly depressing rn, I'm gonna host another one of these free masterclasses, because what can we do but think and learn and write and organise. I'll be drilling into the fineries of short story structure (vs novels) and how we can make things of transformative beauty in tiny spaces. Free, online, 1hr, Thur 20 November. Pls RT!

'Man In The Rain' by Tony Bell is coming soon to the Jack!
This poignant, funny play explores how parents and children navigate their differences and asks why some choose to perform and others choose to watch.
Runs 19 – 30 Nov

Such a treat to catch #GhostStories last night - I loved being gathered in Dragon Hall to witness 4 east anglian stories for our time, all of them with the delicious pleasure of a classic ghost story. Great to hear @jamesliammcd and @TassaDeparis talk about the process too.
Five more chances to see @_HighTide_ #GhostStories in the East @StGeorgesGY @WellsMaltings @WritersCentre Dragon Hall @vickyhallharlow &Old Divinity School Hall Cambridge. Great to hear the voices of East-based writers @jamesliammcd @TassaDeparis @62GladstoneSt & Eloise Pennycott
