Listen to Words And Women on General Norwich!

The lovely Madeleine Hickish, producer of General Norwich, spent some time recently interviewing W&W organisers Lynne Bryan and Belona Greenwood about Words And Women. She has made a wonderful podcast of the interview which reveals everything about our work  and more. The more includes a reading by Deborah Arnander who features in our anthology Words And Women One. Deborah reads an extract from her anthology story Lion Bastard. Also the podcast ends with music by the stylish and eccentric duo Let’s Eat Grandma playing Sax In The City, a song which they unleashed on our audience at our IWD event on the 8^th March.

The General Norwich Podcast is a not-for-profit project funded by an Ultd. Social Enterprise grant. The aim of the 12-part series is to celebrate those individuals and organisations who contribute creatively and innovatively to our community. The podcast has covered loads of brilliant people, places and goings-on in the city of Norwich, Norfolk, England, in addition to Words And Women, such as Thalia Theatre Company, Print to the People, The Big Issue, and FoodCycle Norwich. Madeleine would love to hear from you if you, or someone you know, is doing something exciting in the community, and would like to be interviewed too! You can email her at general.norwich@yahoo.co.uk.
