Conversation with Fionna Inward Allen - Poet, Writer, Performer and Educator
Manage episode 347570558 series 2977324
In this episode I chat to Poet, Writer, Performer and Educator Fionna Inward Allen.
I first met Fee around six years ago at a mutual friend’s picnic. As soon as she flashed her stellar smile, I knew I wanted to talk to her. And talk we did, all afternoon. We have since kept in touch via social media and on the 10th of September we finally met again when Fee performed a few of her beautiful poems at the podcast live event. Her words moved the audience between both tears and laughter.
In our chat for the podcast we covered Fee’s life growing up feeling torn between writing and performing, her vast inner world as a child, creativity as a means of escape, especially when you are bound to one physical place, her time working at the BBC and her self imposed fifteen year writing apprenticeship in the caravan she bought for this sole purpose, rebuilding herself after having her son and then subsequently becoming a single parent.
And of course, so much more.
Welcome to my chat with the delightfully gorgeous Fionna Inward Allen.
