The writing, performing and storytelling continues. I just don't take time to report it here, which is a pity as so much is going on that is good in Rochdale and its environs.
I'm currently rehearsing with Pulling Threads, the performance wing of Touchstones Creative Writing Group, in poetry, prose, song, drama and costume we attempt to give out tribute to the fallen and forgotten of WWI, currently concentrating on The Battle of Jutland and The Battle of the Somme.
About Me
- Ray Stearn
- I've worked as a children's librarian since leaving Library School back in Eighteen-Hundred-And-Starving-To-Death. I thought it was about time I set out my professional development, before I retire! I've been working for Rochdale MBC for 21 years now and still haven't the key to the door. The best bits are "out on the road" around the borough, in libraries, parks, woodlands, schools, playgroups, nurseries, in fact anywhere other than my desk. I can watch the end result of the job I do here, sharing stories with children, throwing in a few with puppets and props, perhaps a drumming circle with my jealously guarded recycled drums. I've had them for more than ten years now. a relatively new addition is stories with PMLD children using the wonderful Bag Books.
