Quotes by Denis Judd (?)

“Broadcast on, speech: – to prepare. The right length. Know when to stop. Time it. Write it out word for word. Make it sound as if extempore & from the heart. So write for reading, – to be spoken. Slower than ordinary conversation. Go slow. Speak out of your own experience, a picture in words, – you are painting a picture. You must be absolutely sincere. A little humour if possible. Some detail the audience does not know & some details they know.... Today”
― Denis Judd, The Private Diaries of Alison Uttley: Author of Little Grey Rabbit and Sam Pig
