Thanks so much for your talk on Coco C...Hi Justine,<br />Thanks so much for your talk on Coco Chanel at Hay last week.. it was favourite session of the week! I also thought I'd let you know that I haven recently been required to start writing a play as part of a qualification I'm doing.. and have been searching for something interesting and about which I am really passionate. Chanel has always been a great inspiration for me as a young woman and I'm deeply interested in her life and work. Anyway, following your talk, you inspired me greatly to perhaps write something based around the time of the war in which she lived, and her unusual role within this. I'm very excited at such a prospect and can't wait to begin, and thought I'd let you know that you had a key element in me deciding such :) I'd love to hear any ideas or thoughts you have and hope you may be able to eventually take some time out of your i'm sure extremely busy schedule to perhaps read or even see my play when its completed (a long shot I know but if you don't ask then you'll never know eh?)<br />Thanks, <br />Bethan Kitchen, 17, Newcastle upon Tyne.Bethan Jane Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09978634038461039293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078357011397157919.post-62766878737047458432011-05-30T14:22:58.315-07:002011-05-30T14:22:58.315-07:00It sounds like you know your subject so relax, enj...It sounds like you know your subject so relax, enjoy, take a few deep breaths before followed by even breaths throughout - lots of luck, you'll be fine :)Sam :) xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08291159453055710194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078357011397157919.post-18630818394629649112011-05-30T03:24:50.143-07:002011-05-30T03:24:50.143-07:00In Wales, en route to Hay, and have had bracing wa...In Wales, en route to Hay, and have had bracing walks, crab sandwiches, and delicious chocolate ice-cream -- all v. good remedies for pre-Hay nervousness, though still beset by anxiety dreams last night.Justine Picardiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16957669049699860596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078357011397157919.post-16355907792876396542011-05-29T17:36:47.611-07:002011-05-29T17:36:47.611-07:00Me too - wonder who the mystery guest will be?

I've just looked at the program and I am raging with envy! If you get the chance will you please tell Kevin MacLeod that I am in love with him, and Vanessa Redgrave that I still have wonderful memories of seeing her on stage in 1991, and Melvyn Bragg that I went to a debate he chaired on feminism in 1992 and wanted to run off with him. Just joking of course, but what a wonderful line up you're joining. <br /><br />I do sometimes wish my parents hadn't chosen to migrate here.jaywalkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18057625356137450284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078357011397157919.post-84282504448159796992011-05-27T16:07:20.632-07:002011-05-27T16:07:20.632-07:00The best advice -- thank you.
