Gary Dalkin & Sophie Beal on turning messy drafts into great novels


Listen Later

Originally a sell-out talk at the Bournemouth Writing Festival, Organising Chaos has become a must-attend session for writers struggling to bring structure, clarity, and confidence to their early drafts. Gary, an experienced editor and writer, and Sophie, author and director of Cadence Publishing, share how the idea was born, their top tips for re-inspiring your writing brain, and why every writer’s process looks a little different.

The conversation also explores the thriving Bournemouth writing scene, the importance of creative community, and how to stay productive when motivation runs low.

Whether your draft feels like a disaster or you just need a fresh push to the finish line, this episode is packed with encouragement, practical advice, and wisdom from two people who truly understand the writer’s journey.
