Andrew's Radio Times

Congratulations to Norwich Writers' Circle member Andrew Stephenson, who has had a letter published in the 12-18 February 2011 edition of Radio Times.

Andrew's letter reads as follows:

I am enjoying Episodes (Mondays BBC2) greatly. This, in the face of criticisms - from RT amongst others - that it is not funny, or has not got moving, or otherwise has not the critics's fire. If its creators sold it on that pretext, they were wrong. It is satire.

Comedy tries for laughs. Satire sticks sharp things into deserving targets. Whilst straight-facedly exploring what's wrong with the world, as a natural corollary it commonly manages to be hilarious in ways comedians struggle to fathom.

EDP OK

Congratulations to our Chair, Anne Funnell, who has had a letter published in the Eastern Daily Press today.

Anne's EDP letter commented on the recent demise of the Wensum Lodge Creative Writing Group, and at the same time drew attention to Norwich Writers' Circle.

The letter went on to highlight our new season ahead, which begins on 21st September with an Open Evening, so that any former Wensum Lodge writers looking for another group to attend were aware of what NWC has to offer.
