A Virtuous Life

(For anyone who was listening on Acast, the podcast hosting has been moved to <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://RSS.com">RSS.com</a> at https://rss.com/podcasts/snippets)This is a podcast about nothing in particular. Each episode is just a slice of life. Most often these will probably be me reading and talking about a story or part of a story, or perhaps reading a poem. I'll be reading only works that are out of copyright - think Project Gutenberg. There will probably be a lot of fables, but I might occasionally find some old sci-fi or classic fiction to throw in. Anything that isn't a short story will just be a piece of the story. I also have occasional thoughts on life in general, or on things like meditation and stoicism. I've also been doing some actor training recently and I may muse on what I'm learning there, or my experiences of different types of theatre, classes and people.Episodes are not going to be coming out on a regular schedule. Right now this is just a hobby to see where it goes, if anywhere. If there are particular stories you'd like to hear, please let me know. But always bear in mind that I cannot record anything that is covered by copyright.I do hope you enjoy this journey. If you do, please let other people know about it. And let me know, too :)Hosted on RSS.com.
