A selection of poetry from Tyneside writers Geoff Holland and John Oliver taking their inspiration from Tyneside landmarks, culture and boyhood memories. Links to their work can be found on their profile page.
Allison Davies reads her poem Hattiban inspires by a motobike ride in the Himalayan foothills and Tinned Pie a short story through the eyes of a child who lives with a mother with OCD.

We also bring you:
My latest drama and most ambitious project to date. The idea came from a large stone fireplace and a noise heard in the middle of the night when I was staying in a holiday cottage on the Northumberland coast. The drama Dolly's House is a supernatural thriller played by a cast of thousands (well 13 actually) plus musical accompaniment. Recorded at Shipyard Studios in Newbrough during the one hot day of last Summer; in 6 short episodes it tells the story of Michelle in the aftermath of a traumatic stillbirth . Thanks to members of the Wylam Amateur Dramatic Society, the Green Shoe Company and my own daughters for bringing so much to the production in terms of their acting and musical talents.
