I enjoy reading aloud, especially stories written by Welsh people. My accent wraps itself naturally around words and phrases and the whole thing feels just right. People have told me a big part of their enjoyment listening to my stories comes from hearing my Welsh brogue. It helps, I think, that a Welsh voice tends to enunciate clearly so is more easily understood than many dialects.
I can also wear a Welsh costume for my readings, to add to the atmosphere.
CHILDREN
My ‘Little Teggy’ stories are well received by a wide age range. Children enjoy hearing about the different culture and there’s usually lots of questions. They can learn a great deal about geography, language, history etc, once interest is sparked.
ADULTS
In addition to reading my writings I read other Welsh authors. No group is too large or too small. I enjoy interactive formats. |
