Work in progress
October 29th, 2007 by Steve Bowbrick
Here's a real find. While I was hunting around for links to use in the 'Wrestling for Britain' entry I came across this 2001 page from the Radio 3 archive. Five short programmes from a series called Work in Progress in which George Szirtes, poet, translator - and presenter of the wrestling programme - talks about writing a novel set in the wrestling world (a novel which, unless I'm mistaken - hasn't yet been published).
I love stuff about the creative process - I've often thought of doing a blog about it. Anyway, the Work in Progress pages appear to be a creative process goldmine - although obviously of quite Radio 3-type stuff (lots of poetry and theatre, no video games). Dozens and dozens of Real streams, from people like Roy Strong and Paul Muldoon, Vadim Jean and Ian McEwan.
