Sorry, we don't have images or video for this item.

Episode number 2 of Series “Writers on Writing”.
This series is based on a growing archive of video material, of conversations between contemporary writers discussing their work. The material has been re-edited to form a resource for students and teachers of English, and each of the six twenty minute videos focuses on different aspects and stages of the writing process. Each video is accompanied by a resource booklet. In this video, writers talk about writing from personal experience and in the second half of the video four topics are given as examples of subject matter: children, sex, money and religion.
