White Lies (Dont Do It) Marc Nash 2021-06-27 | We all employ white lies as parents when dealing with young children. Some are entirely innocent and pleasurable such as Father Christmas or the Tooth Fairy and have a built in expiry date when the child will realise they are a gentle fib and the illusion will be mutually abandoned. But what about other white lies fed to children, ones we may feel are for their own protection? Where is the line drawn and what does it embed for the child in terms of trustworthiness? I discuss these in the light of my upcoming new novel "Stories We Tell Our Children".*You can pre-order my new novel "Stories We Tell Our Children" (also available for international shipping) from here uk.bookshop.org/books/stories-we-tell-our-children/9781912436941 Publication date 15th July.

Metafiction, When The Absent Author Lets On About His Presence In The Pages Marc Nash 2023-02-25 | A discussion in relation to my new novel "The Death Of The Author (In Triplicate)", whose third and final section is through the eyes of a third person author who has just completed his novel and is thinking about its critical reception and the likely interview questions he will be asked about the process of writing it. Behind his grappling with these questions and revealing his own thoughts, lies the true first person author, that being Marc Nash who wrote part three as well as parts one and two and the tension between the truth of the author in part three with Nash's own personal truth.

Human Beings Make Unreliable Witnesses Marc Nash 2023-02-25 | Justice is an abstract concept, yet the material evidence which underpins it is fundamentally rooted in matter (fingerprints, DNA, ballistics evidence etc). This represents the age old dilemma of a materialist understanding of the world versus an idealist one. Is there a single, verifiable objective reality rooted in matter, or is everything ultimately determined by our language, naming and idea of things? How can human beings bear witness, when we don't even know the truth of what our senses are telling us? I discuss this in relation to my new novel “The Death Of The Author (In Triplicate)” Available direct from the publisher @coronasamizdat coronasamizdat.com/index.php?id_product=89&rewrite=the-death-of-the-author-in-triplicate-marc-nash&controller=productOther related videos:Abstract Justice and Material Evidence youtu.be/vRKerZPcaDkMetafiction youtu.be/8SWO0MfMp9I

How Time Functions in Novels Marc Nash 2021-07-25 | When you talk about the constituent elements of a novel, one that is often left out of discussion is that of time. Time is multi-faceted in novels, working in three different ways and I talk about these different applications and how my new novel "Stories We Tell Our Children" examines those different approaches. *“Stories We Tell Our Children” Available from all usual outlets. But I would encourage supporting local & indie bookshops uk.bookshop.org/books/stories-we-tell-our-children/9781912436941For more content such as video readings, discussions and quote cards, all gathered together in one place - sulcicollective.blogspot.com/2021/07/on-july-15th-my-new-novel-stories-we.html
Language And Play Marc Nash 2021-07-17 | Language is a key component of children's play. They voice dolls, action men, football games and the like. But adults lose this sense of story, because their play takes much more rigid lines, such as competitiveness in sports, or the art of creation where the art form is the narrative. I talk about retaining the playfulness of language in my latest novel "Stories We Tell Our Children" and how writing itself can be playful simply through language.*"Stories We Tell Our Children" is available from all usual UK book outlets. But I would encourage supporting local & indie bookshops uk.bookshop.org/books/stories-we-tell-our-children/9781912436941
The Centrality Of Story To Human Beings Marc Nash 2021-07-09 | Stories are so central to our lives. Every day you hear a myriad of stories, from describing the story of your day at work, through adverts and charity asks, the news on TV, the story of a football match and that's without you necessarily picking up a novel or watching a film. This is hardly surprising when story has an important function to play, helping us arrange the events in our lives, detecting patterns, ordering sequences of events and helping us come to decisions, or analysing the reasons behind past events or just evoking an emotional response. I talk about the centrality of story and whether our current narratives are fit for purpose, especially for the development of our children in this increasingly complex world, with reference to my new novel "Stories We Tell Our Children" which is out next Thursday.You can preorder my novel and support indie and local bookshops here uk.bookshop.org/books/stories-we-tell-our-children/9781912436941
The Need For New Narratives And Stories Marc Nash 2021-07-08 | Have our traditional stories mirrored or determined our relationships to Nature and the planet? Is it perhaps built into our very language? With the impending threats to animal species and planet Earth herself, plus the increasing forcing together of man and animals as man consumes their habitats, making it more likely for diseases to jump cross species, we desperately need new approaches to our relationships with flora ad fauna. And does this perhaps begin with how we tell stories and a need for new narrative structures?A discussion of these ideas in light of my new novel "Stories We Tell Our Children" out July 15th. You can pre-order it here uk.bookshop.org/books/stories-we-tell-our-children/9781912436941and support local and indie bookshops.
The Dangers Of Story Marc Nash 2021-07-04 | Story penetrates so much of human interaction, from books to advertising and charity asks. But what happens when stories penetrates realms previously reigned over by other forms of human knowledge? The on-line world has allowed for a proliferation of story, making direct emotional appeals that increasingly override ruth and fact in key realms. I discuss this in relation to my new novel "Stories We Tell Our Children" published by Lendal Press 15th July 2021.

Childrens Imaginations - Careful What You Feed Them Marc Nash 2021-06-29 | Stories feed our imagination, both as children and as adults. But you can't control the output of a child's imagination. Some information you impart to them, or a story you read to them, may strike you as harmless or innocent, but a child might run with it into unintended directions that cause them anxieties. I discuss this in elation to my new novel "Stories We Tell Our Children".*You can pre-order my new novel "Stories We Tell Our Children" (also available for international shipping) from here. uk.bookshop.org/books/stories-we-tell-our-children/9781912436941The book is published July 15th
