Coming soon...

‘Paul Burke – On Your Radio’

When: 21 February 2006, 6.30pm
Where: October Gallery, 24 Gloucester Street, London WC1
Nearest tube: Holborn

The lovely Paul Burke, copywriter and novelist, will be our VIP guest speaker in February. Paul came to a very early 26 event, but his audio wouldn’t aud, so he promised to come back later. Now he’s got his sounds in working order, we are delighted to have him back.
Paul specialises in writing radio commercials and will share his collection of good and bad use of words on radio
with 26ers. He will also tell us what it’s like to combine commercial copywriting with the life of a successful novelist.

Those present at Paul’s first 26 outing will recall that despite the technical problems, he fascinated us with tales of working with voice-over artists including Stephen Fry – and falling out with his wife after spending his holidays writing novels (‘Father Frank’, ‘Untorn Tickets’, ‘The Man Who Fell In Love With His Wife’).

The October Gallery is just north of Holborn in WC1. That’s just one station east of Tottenham Court Road and Covent Garden. Please don’t be scared; there are some West-enders who seem to think it’s bordering Hackney; it’s only walking distance from the Ivy.

Book early. Get in touch with Julie at twiggy.peasticks@virgin.net.
