BIO
Suzie Wilde has a personal history that could supply story to any novelist and after careers in teaching and research, she went on to study creative writing. She now crafts intimately detailed, can’t-put-it-down narratives of her own.
Born in Portsmouth, she loves its mix of inner-city and seaside, but Suzie has settled in the South Downs, where she feels intimately connected and her themes of home and belonging were formed. Suzie spends much of her time walking with her sixth Labrador, Raine. Each week, these rambles feature in a popular podcast: Wilde Walks, at Petersfield Community Radio.
Suzie has run events at U.K. universities and literary festivals. Hot topics for discussion are: How to find your Story and keep it on the rails; Viking traditions in plot and character development (apart from rape & pillage); How to succeed at sixty and other motivational themes.
WILDE WALKS
INSPIRATIONAL WALKS IN BEAUTIFUL COUNTRYSIDE
Whenever Petersfield author Suzie Wilde walks her labrador Raine, her choice of inspirational country locations is vast. In each Wilde Walk, Suzie describes vivid scenes of South Downs scenery and the thoughts they provoke for her. This is speech radio at its purest and most enjoyable: a single articulate voice, a unique imagination and a lifetime of rich experiences from which to draw, all set in stunning countryside
