The entire six-part 2014 radio adaption of Good Omens, with Mark Heap as Aziraphale and Peter Serafinowicz as Crowley, will be broadcast on Radio 4 Extra at six in the evening, Monday to Friday, and available on BBC Radio iPlayer for 29 days afterwards. If you can’t access iPlayer where you live or don’t manage to listen before it goes off iPlayer, another user has linked the series here.

Also features Simon Jones (I’m assuming the one who is known for playing Arthur Dent) as Mr Young, Josie Lawrence as Agnes Nutter (who plays the same role in the TV adaption) and Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman as police officers.

Writing techniques and stuff to pay attention to/improve etc

relateablewriter

Perspective/Point of view

  • First person. ‘The gun nestled in my hands’
  • involves reader/makes them feel like they’re experiencing the story first hand
  • Third person. ‘The gun nestled in his hand’
  • narrative, makes room for more description and scene setting, can be formal or informal writing structure

Sentence structures

  • Short opening sentences build tension and create drama
  • Three short sentences build tension through repetition
  • Contrast between short sentences and long, complex sentences can be powerful when used correctly
  • Start sentences with different words to add interest
  • Start sentences with the same or similar sentences to build tension through repetition.

Personification, powerful descriptive technique

  • ‘The concrete beneath me could’ve swallowed me whole’
  • ‘But your feet defy the orders from your brain and stay rooted to the ground’

Pathetic Fallacy - weather reflects the mood

  • ‘The leaden sky darkened’

Sensory description - sensations felt by the protagonist, gives a much more realistic feel to the content and the reader can relate to the sensations

  • ‘I felt the sweat drip down my collar. I felt the trigger and the air in my lungs refused to leave my body’

Repetition, when used correctly can be very powerful for creating drama, suspense or tension

  • Again, I felt the pressure of my finger on the trigger; again, my lungs refused to exhale’

Cliches, used in suspenseful situations create a huge contrast point

  • ‘Frozen in that moment if felt like a dream’

Similes, descriptive technique

  • ‘It was like a movie’

Adrress the reader to involve them and give them interest, using ‘you’ makes the reader feel like the narrator is talking directly to them

  • ‘One of those dreams when you want to move…every fiber of your beings long to feel’

Reflection on feelings/ physical and emotional response to events, descriptive and realistic technique. Often describing the reactions more than the actual event is more powerful and effective

  • ‘It didn’t really feel like me. It was an out of body experience’

Metaphors, powerful descriptive technique

  • ‘Trickling blood crept away from him, the trickle became a crimson flower that blossomed eerily over the grey concrete


Happy Writing
