Probably should be cheering for a Prem team in the Champions Cup, but as Bath knocked us out thanks to a dodgy yellow card, allez UBB!

Jumping clear out of my comfort zone this morning for something that was 100% my idea - just hoping it all works out 😳 and all in a creepy Victorian gaol…

Books day off to rest and do nice things. Spends whole day playing computer games and watching films. Suddenly, just as I have to leap into parent mode and cook dinner/sort homework etc, I have a burst of writing energy... but now no time to do it. ARGH.

Admitting defeat to the long covid demons this morning and having a rest day on the sofa rather than heading out to the double header at Franklins Gardens #wrwc. Need my spoons for a big day at work tomorrow… #OhNoIDont

I've started a Substack. That's what all the cool kids are doing these days, I think? rebeccacockcroft.substack.com (I've probably done it wrong...) It's about the Northamptonshire Witch Trials and my efforts to write a play about them. #witchtrial

Jane Austen died on this day in 1817. In her too short 41 years on this planet, she wrote six of the greatest novels in the English language, laid the groundwork for the modern romance, and gifted us with some of the best quotes ever. Pour one out for Jane today.

Are you 16-30 years old with a passion for writing? Does the sight of a blank page simultaneously excite and terrify you?

Roundhay Park, Leeds. It was a hot day for a long walk, but what a glorious space! Taken with CanonR6 with a Pocket Dispo toy lens

Derngate looking gorgeous. I love how versatile the space is - with even more unique events to come!

Just watched Black Mirror: Common People, so will now only be watching fluffy Jane Austen adaptations for the rest of the day as a soul cleanser. NO MORE SAD THINGS.

Rebecca Cockcroft @beccockcroft.bsky.social · 20/04/2025

Have been avoiding audio editing - not sure why, perhaps it felt like an insurmountable task? Anyway, picked it up again today and now all 10 episodes of Sense & Sensibility are rough cut. Few pick ups to go, but then it’s on to music and sfx! July launch doesn’t seem so scary now…

When @louchawner.bsky.social asks you to design a poster for his new show, and you wildly suggest having him barefoot in the woods wearing a hospital gown, and holding a bunch of flowers… he makes it happen. Fun time in the wood on a weekend morning 🤣 Honoured he asked me to shoot his poster.

I read a story as a child where a man sells his soul to the devil. The twist is that the devil isn't evil: he's really really stupid and dull, and that's the punishment, eternity with a dullard. It's in my mind re AI: we won't be replaced by evil machines. We'll be replaced by crap ones.

Book idea from years ago has wiggled its way back into my brain… might have to do something about that.

Rebecca Cockcroft @beccockcroft.bsky.social · 01/03/2025

Definitely not one for the purists, and potentially I’m too familiar with the script for this simplified version to truly hit the spot, but it was a funny, refreshing take on my favourite Shakespeare play. Celeb leads with actual stage chops & chemistry who will hopefully bring the Bard to new fans.

That's it. I'm done with Amazon. Very rarely used them of late, but final straw.

What an absolute honour to have been at the final Loughborough Lightning game of the seaon last night with my photographer hat on. And of course, it was brilliant to see Lightning win! Time to save up for some better glass and hopefully get the chance to be back pitchside for next season.

000

Rebecca Cockcroft @beccockcroft.bsky.social · 20/02/2025

Potentially breaking my toe ahead of 4 days of photography was probably not the best thing ever. At least I can sit down while shooting the Lightning Rugby game tomorrow night…

Tonight's tasks - sort public liability insurance, create model release forms, send out model release forms, sigh over price of the lens that I want that even second hand is eye watering, start designing a theatre programme. What I was meant to do tonight: edit more Sense & Sensibility.

Bar one voice still to record, all of Episode 1 of Sense & Sensibility @nothingbutroars.bsky.social is rough cut! Just music and sfx to go - which considering I started this evening with three scenes of nine edited, is some good going. #audiodrama #JaneAusten
