This week on BBC Upload with Adam Crowther, you can hear 'Gut Instincts', a witty tale from Nailsworth writer Peter T Stone, created during a writing challenge set by Montpellier Writers Group in Cheltenham.

There's a two-part audio play 'The Legend of the Moonrakers', written and performed by the Wharf Writers Group for Devizes Crammer Day celebrations.

We’ll also hear 'Pomegranate', an award-winning poem by Cirencester poet Frank McMahon, created for the Poetry Together project.

From Bristol, Hilary Smith shares Speechless, a moving short story about the friendship between a dinner lady and a little girl who doesn’t speak, inspired by her time teaching in local schools. Hilary chats to Adam about how she was inspired to create the story.

There’s more poetry too with 'The Ebbing of Autumn' by James Brinsford from Shepton Mallet, and 'Cosmic Stir' by Stuart Ervin from Salisbury, written after 18 months of travelling and a moment of inspiration over a cup of coffee.
