Molly Naylor – författare

How does it feel to have your world blown apart? Molly moves to London full of naive dreams, high hopes and on a quest to make her life just like the movies. Then on 7/7/2005 she finds herself on a tube train blown up by terrorists and her life is forced to take a different direction. Funny, frank and poetic; this is the true story of what happened next and how things are put back together after they''ve been blown apart. First broadcast on BBC Radio 4, to mark the 6th anniversary of the 7/7 bombings. Starring Morven Christie as Molly, Bryan Dick as Dan, Sam Dale as Dad, Susie Riddell as Mum, Jonathan Forbes as Pavel and James Lailey as Matt. Read by Molly Naylor. Directed by Gaynor Macfarlane.

Molly Naylor is not your typical Burning Eye poet. Poetry is actually just one of her many writing talents. She is also a scriptwriter, producer and filmmaker. From writing sitcoms for SKY 1 to recording audiobooks for BBC Radio 4 and recording short films, Molly’s new poetry collection Badminton only exemplifies her diverse interest and talent as a writer.

Renowned astronomer Maggie Hill is giving a lecture about her career, to inspire young women to work in science. She's also attending her first ever therapy session in order to overcome some debilitating anxiety. These events force Maggie to examine her greatest achievements and biggest regrets as she tackles space science, mental health, and communication -- both interpersonal and intergalactic. A new comic about legacy, loss, human curiosity and the economics of failure -- adapted by illustrator Lizzy Stewart and writer Molly Naylor from Naylor's play of the same name.

Edited and co-ordinated by Sarah Lowndes, Like The Sea I Think is an enthralling collection of new marine writing from East Anglia gathered from library workshops and open submissions held across the region. It is wonderfully designed, as always, by Emily Benton, and available as a memento and inspiration for all those living by, inspired by, or curious about, the sea. It is our provider, our enemy, our defender, our gateway to the world; it defines our borders, informs our imaginations, it inspires our artists. The anthology features an incredible range of writing styles, subject matter, and authors; the youngest featured is 11, the eldest 87.
