Time to hassle BBC Wales TV....

I hope there are some out there who will agree with me that BBC Wales has been somewhat tardy is using its fantastic skill in the making of TV dramas for programmes about Wales. I don't think it has ever made a costume drama set in Wales and designed to show Wales to the world in the way that Poldark has done for Cornwall or Dr Finlay has done for Scotland! With my Angel Mountain books now well established and very popular, my wife is organizing a little campaign to try and convince the BBC Wales bosses to take on the Angel Mountain books (well, the first one first, and then we will see how things go...) as a dramatization and production project which will entertain audiences within the UK and also promote Wales abroad.

If you are interested in this idea, please look at Inger's letter here:

and feel free to write and tell the BBC what you think!

Inger has written to all her friends and contacts to ask them to help. Many letters have already gone to the BBC. We are fully aware that this is a rather blatant bit of campaigning and lobbying, but the BBC is fully in the picture, and since they are currently considering a proposal from me, every extra person that hassles them might (we hope) increase the chances of something positive happening....

Thank you!

PS. And by the way, Martha Morgan is far sexier and far more interesting than Lizzie Bennet!

Thank you, Ceri. Much appreciated! We Brits are always terribly reticent when it comes to this sort of thing -- but in this case, with the BBC top brass already discussing things internally, nothing ventured, nothing gained.......

Agreed :) Would like to help with that. Will write letter and circulate this post as widely as possible. No need to apologise about blatant lobbying...we are rather keen on that sort of thing over here :)

Furthermore I pledge to review every single one of the Angel Mountain series in the run up to St David's Day. Please feel free to grab a bunch of Directory listings for the books ( individually ) and for your self in the authors section:- http://www.storyforgestudios.com/americymru/directory/index.php/entry/add If there are any technical problems with the platform let us know and we'll be happy to help.

Cheers
