107.9FM locally, or from http://www.stroudfm.co.uk/ anywhere in the world!
And repeated the following Sunday, March 27 at 3 PM ...
107.9FM locally, or from http://www.stroudfm.co.uk/ anywhere in the world!
Peter talks about the book and how it came to be written ... and he tells how as a young man he set off to seek his fortune in a home-made canoe; how he eventually skilled-up to become a factory tool maker ... but found the life intolerable and so set about writing Smallcreep’s Day.
He quickly found a publisher and even more quickly it became an international best-seller ... yet he never wrote another word.
He tells why ... and he talks about his fascinating life after the book, from pottery to alchemy to Theatre-in-Education.
Don't miss!
His book, Smallcreep's Day, is still being published. Check out this web link for details:

Have I got news for you ... I've started writing a book about my time with The Art Lot ... how I came to be involved with Stroud FM, and it will include some great extracts from each Art Lot session ...
I'll keep you informed! The draft title at the moment is:
Confessions of a Radio Ham
Art Lot guest Annabel Hollis sends this in:
CREATIVITY as GATEWAY to HEALING
A series of workshops at Hawkwood College during 2011
“Allowing the mysterious and magical to unfold is at the centre of this experience, being receptive to what wishes to happen in the moment. The rhythm of the year and its changing seasons will facilitate the bringing to birth of hidden parts of yourself, and allow aspects that no longer serve you to die away.
“Being open to your dreams before a workshop will be encouraged. This will feed into the creative process which will use a diverse range of approaches including art, writing and meditation.
“Doing all seven in the series of workshops would be beneficial though not essential.
“Previous creative experience not needed, and don’t worry if you do not dream!”
Each day is £62 inc. lunch & refreshments
26 March Promise of new beginnings
30 April In love with life
25 June Taking a breath
24 September Nourished by the harvest
29 October Honouring the darkness
10 December Transformation and rebirth
