WRITING

Fiction & Playwriting

Nina has written two novels, several short stories, three plays and a children's book.  She was highly commended in the Royal Marsden Short Story Competition.  

 

Nina took an Arvon creative writing course under the attentive watch of authors Jake Arnott and Louise Welsh.  

 

In her final year at Webber Douglas she wrote How Are You? I'm Fine; a play she co-produced with fellow actors after graduating. This led to the creation of the highly acclaimed Simple8 theatre company.  

 

She is currently collaborating with Amy Heuer on financial educational fiction for 7-9 year olds.  

 

 

Welcome (the musical)
(Copyright 2024)

"Come, let me dance with you,

Let me pull you to the floor,

I'm an independent dog, you see,

I don't come if you don't call..."

 

Winter, 1999.   Kat loves An and An loves Kat. So much. Their unbreakable bond has brought them to Welcome, a rehab centre on the south coast of England.

 

When Jack arrives from prison, Kat is thrown into a new century of love, despair and hope.

 

An is anorexia.  Jack is dangerous.  Kat is torn.  Life is a cluster of the choices we make.  When tragedy strikes and it comes to the most important decision of her life, will Kat make the right one?

 

Adapted from Nina's book, Welcome (the musical) is in development.  It is an unconventional love story, reminding us how far our will power can stretch, to destroy and overcome.
