Road Dahl's short story "The Landlady", recorded by Robert Harper back in 2013. All this talk of the BFG recently made me remember that I used to do an awful lot of voice over work. My writing and publishing work seems to have taken over, but I would gladly (of course) welcome any enquiries. ;-)

A reading of Walter de la Mare’s poem ‘The Listeners’

Reading of A Poison Tree by William Blake from Songs of Innocence and Experience


I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.

And I watered it in fears,
Night and morning with my tears;
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.

And it grew both day and night,
Till it bore an apple bright.
And my foe beheld it shine.
And he knew that it was mine,

And into my garden stole
When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning glad I see
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.
 
William Blake


A Poison Tree by William Blake

I do things with words and, occasionally, music.
