Morrison, Janet

Janet Morrison is the BBC Award-winning radio playwright of The Fisherman (2012), and the writer, producer, and director of the short feature Silent Hearts (2016), a JAFTA Propella Winner. In 2015 she won the Jean D’Costa Award at the Lignum Vitae Writing Awards with her collection of short stories, A Different Me A Better You. They were subsequently published by Blue Banyan Books and shortlisted at the 2021 Bocas Literary Festival. Morrison hopes that the heroes in the stories, who are children with disabilities, will help to empower any child who feels they are somehow different from others.
