Writing for radio has played a big part in my career and is always a hugely rewarding experience. I’ve been lucky to work for some talented producers who have put their faith in me and breathed life into my words. Jane Dauncey, Alison Hindell , Kate Rowlands, Tim Green have all played a big part in keeping my writing alive.
A shining highlight will always be writing and storylining the Radio Wales daily soap STATION ROAD. Having your words voiced by the best actors in Wales on a weekly basis was an unprecedented joy. Bring it back!
