Secret Garden

I have just finished Secret Garden for the radio theater project. I feel it is my magnum opus. I adapted into a three part episode. Frances Hodgson Burnett wrote a very audioally adaptable story. The only thing I had to down play was Dickon as he was the most visual character in the story. My focus was the healing of Mary and Collin from the bad treatment of the adults. It was fun piece to adapt. While I will not put this work on the same level as BBC Radio 4 work, I think that it stands up well. Joseph McGuire

Castle Fordych Mystery

Here is a sample of Lady Molly of Scotland Yard: The Castle Fordych Mystery. This is one based on the short stories by Baroness Orczy. She also wrote the Scarlet Pimpernel.

It's been a while since I posted. Not much news until now.
