A map does not just chart, it unlocks and formulates meaning; it forms bridges between here and there, between disparate ideas that we did not know were previously connected. ... Reif Larsen, The Selected Works of T S Spivet.This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Thank you! It’s actually the back of a card. I’ve finished this today and just posted it. Now you probably won’t like it! If you really want a card, you’ll have to brief me on what you’d like on it and a deadline and let me have your address (not publicly of course). I’d want something in exchange. You’ve taught drama. I desperately need to conquer stage fright. So?

Stage fright eh……that can be dealt with……if you want to get out there and perform you need to believe in what you are doing, focus on the role, be the character, know your audience and understand the journey you are taking them on. After four or five terrifying attempts you’ll start to get he hang of it. That help?

Thanks so much for taking the time to give me this advice. I’m talking about singing solo. Yikes. Did it first time last year and I was a pitiful wreck! Reflecting on what you wrote, one realisation I had was that I was equating it with driving. I do not like driving – I’m afraid of killing somebody! I will never kill anybody by singing at them. I hope, anyway! Ann
