By the Fireside-the interview: Richard Tomlinson interviews Philippa for Somerset Radio Broadcast.
The apparent insanity of an odyssey to traverse the chronology of science. The reasons for choosing a symphonic prose narrative…a deeper sanity?
Philippa explains the Inspiration and its demands- a gift with a lifelong liability in the in depth SkyBlue Interviews that can be heard here.
Philippa, this was a wondrous interview–and by wondrous I mean I was left, as usual, filled with deep admiration for the magnitude of your talents. I would give my left lung to have even a fraction of your ability to beautifully and artfully weave thought and mastery of words straight through to my tongue as you do.
I find your conversation one that I will happily devour a second time. You provided so much to chew on–your thoughts so rich and dense–I fear missing out on many pearls simply because I was caught up in the cunning execution.
And as an aside, I find many of your words also remind me of Eckart Tolle’s. Oh, to have the bountiful body of thought power you possess.
Hearing you speak was a truly lovely experience.

Shelley, you have been missed! I am not sure I replied to this wonderful comment, and since they are rare I don’t understand it. But all the better for a late discovery. I now see it was a re-discovery. Just shows how rare such comments are! A very happy Christmas since I cannot comment on your firmly closed to comments site.

Shelley, thank you. If I knew you were coming I’d have had a single malt at the ready! It is an impossible book to defend or explain. Richard was a sympathetic interviewer and cameraman. As you can see very few have found their way here, so I really grateful to you.

A video author interview… wonderful idea. When you hear the writer’s audible voice it makes their writing come alive even more. Heartful, genuine, and intriguing. Thank you!

Rebecca thank you! Your comment implies that you may have actually also read something, if so doubly grateful! Not many find their way here but the fire is always fed, in case.
