Our ‘A Writing Chance’ writers filled the lofty halls of Parliament with their voices yesterday. Proud moment for us all. Much to do but hopeful it can be done. #AWritingChance ⁦@NewWritingNorth⁩ ⁦@jrf_uk⁩ ⁦@CommonsDCMS⁩ ⁦ https://t.co/qmrOjbTN6a

Episode 5 is live, featuring @JacquelineHoust and her mentor @SEMcBain!
'it's kind of an amazing catalyst that it just takes one person to spot something that to them seems very obvious but to you you've always had hidden.'

[Sophie McBain @SEMcBain]

The takeaway: if you recognise talent and flair in someone, tell them!! What's obvious to you might not be that way for them.

You can also listen to @JacquelineHoust's fierce and funny piece on running and sexism, read by @eddireader

[Sophie McBain @SEMcBain]

❤️ this Margins to Mainstream episode, feat. @MichaelSheen and @JacquelineHoust - my @NewWritingNorth mentee.

Jacq talks about the lyricist who convinced her that she, too, could write and about the huge impact a small amount of encouragement can make.

Lots to enjoy in this: Glaswegian grit, a grandmother's secret writing history, live audio of @michaelsheen tweeting.

@NewStatesman @JacquelineHoust for #AWritingChance:
'Face down in this Scargill-scarred landscape, it’s suddenly apparent that we too are mere prey in proletariat form.
Sobbing, the girl hauls herself upright. Meanwhile, the clever bloody fox is nowhere to be seen.'

@michaelsheen 🦊Thank you! See you tomorrow in that London, where, as a tight-fisted Scot, I’ll be keeping my hawn oan ma ha’penny...

[Hunt Saboteurs Association @HuntSabs]

Check out this account of sabotaging the Linlithgow and Stirlingshire Hunt by @JacquelineHoust, all the way back in 1989. 📰👇

Beautiful piece of writing from @JacquelineHoust describing a first sab back in the pre-ban days. Recommended.

@friendofthefox Thank you! I’ve held that story in my head for over 30 years, and the noise of the melee is still as vibrant.
