NEWS FOR NZ SUBSCRIBERS TO SKY'S THE ARTS CHANNEL:

Literature: Scribbling

Do you think you can write a novel? Many of us are convinced that we could if only we had the time. Few, of course, ever manage it. Shadowing four acclaimed authors this series shows that, even for the professionals, writing a bestseller is not as easy as it looks…

Follow Minette Walters - whose thrillers The Sculptress, The Echo, The Dark Room, The Ice House and The Scold's Bridle have all been successful BBC adaptations - as well as authors A S Byatt, Rob Newman and Geoff Ryman through the different stages of their writing. What happens when the creative juices refuse to flow? Unrelenting cameras capture every displacement activity the authors find.

Next Screening: 9:00 pm Thu 01, May 2008
