Search by Tags

This page lets you filter my database of all of the new fiction and audio drama podcasts by granular tags to a precise niche. This is very much a work in progress, with tagging of shows always improving. If you want to help, submit your show or update your tagging.

Because tagging is incomplete, you may wish to leave some options empty with initial searches, and then get more specific.

You can also search by Title.

Genre tags - these are additive, so if you pick "Horror" and "Comedy", you should only get horror comedies, rather than just horror. You don't need to select a value for all of them, and some shows don't have three tags, so feel free to start broad and get more narrow.

Gousters, Glims and Veerie-orums
This is the audio version o Gousters, Glims and Veerie-orums, the book written bae Orkney Voices and published by the George Mackay Brown Fellowship for the centenary o George Mackay Brown in 2021. Orcadians don’t aal spaek the same. Aal the perishes and islands hiv thir own weys o spaekeen and thir own wirds. And we even write the wird/wurd different weys/wiys. Some fokk write hid ‘spikk’; some fokk, ‘spaek’; some, ‘spake’. In this you’ll hear different versions o Orcadian fae different perts o the islands - Birsay tae Deerness, Shapinsay tae Kirkwall, Orphir tae Harray, Tankerness and Holm. You’ll hear twathree uncan vowels, descended fae Orkney Norn and wir Norse heritage, and a mense o wirds you might no ken but that aer rich and expressive and rooted in the land and shores o wir islands. The title hidsel hads three good Orkney wirds: Gouster is a sharp breeze o wind or an ootburst o language. Glim is a glimmer, a blink o light or fire. Veerie-orums aer fancy patterns or ornamentation; but the word originates in the Latin ‘variorum’, which noo usually means a book wae contributions fae different writers.
