Good Valentine’s day news from the Beeb yesterday; of the almost 3,000 script submissions to the BBC Writersroom scheme, my screenplay, ‘The Hole in the Moon’ has now shortlisted to the final 5% full read. Another month before final decisions are made – but I’m happy to have made it thus far.
With my radio series ‘The Daffodil’ kicking off next week – 2014 is striking a good pose.
