You are in: Lincolnshire » Inside Lives

Tell us your story.
Do you have a story to tell?
Inside Lives is a brand new project designed to get you more involved with the BBC here in Lincolnshire, both on air and online.

We know everyone has an exciting, moving or fascinating story they can tell about themselves or their lives, just waiting to be heard. We want to bring these stories to light.

Your story can be about anything important to you - your love of cycling, your best holiday ever, a funny moment from your childhood, the day you got married, overcoming a challenge, an event that changed your life, anything!

We want to help you script, record and edit your story- it may even get played on the radio. It's your chance to tell your story your way! You're in charge!

How does it work?
We will be holding storytelling circles right across Lincolnshire in the coming months. They'll be in a variety of locations including pubs, community centres, or on board the BBC bus. At these sessions, you'll meet the other participants and take part in some fun exercises and games to get everyone comfortable with sharing ideas and getting advice. This usually takes about three hours.

After the storytelling circle, you'll have a day or two to write your story at home. Then, there's an individual session where you put the finishing touches to your story, record you reading it, and use a computer to edit the sound. We have experts on hand to help with both writing skills and the use of the computer editing software, so don't be put off if you're not familiar with using a PC. These sessions last between one and two hours and usually take place on board the BBC bus which will come to a convenient location.

It all ends with a get together of everyone who took part, where we listen to all the stories together.

What does it cost?
It’s absolutely free!
