Music and words! An inspiring combination

Last December I was a small part of a wonderful evening of music and words which was the Hark! Sound of Stories event organised by Tracks Darlington.

Having been chosen for the commission to create a new piece of work on the theme of wintering, it was an absolute pleasure to work with Eve Conway who wrote the song ‘Hope Town’ while I wrote the very short story called ‘The Book Binder’, both finding inspiration from each other.

If you weren’t lucky enough to be at the event, then here is your chance to experience Eve’s amazing voice. There is such heartfelt beauty in the song that resonates so very well with the themes in my story. I hope you enjoy both creations.
