Elaine and Louise chat with the Stacey Simmons author and psychotherapist about her book The Queens Path and the 2-day workshop event which is taking place in Glasgow on the 23rd and 24th of August 2025 at the Grand central Hotel. We discuss the event, the creation of the book, the studio system and much, much more.
As part of our ongoing mission to remove barriers and support creative connection, Persistent & Nasty is sponsoring a Sisterhood Ticket. This will fund two women or non-binary pals / colleagues to attend together – because transformative experiences should never be limited by finances.

The Queens Path Scotland
The Queen's Path is the new archetypal journey for women's narrative, from psychotherapy to screenwriting. Whether you're a screenwriter, a novelist, or a psychotherapist, come to Glasgow and learn the revolutionary way of thinking about women's narratives. Whether you're working on a new screenplay, novel, stage play, or work with women who need new narrative models, bring those stories and learn how to place them on The Queen's Path so that the characters or the women you serve can find sovereignty in their stories.
We’re honoured to be supporting the first ever Queen’s Path event – a 2-day in-person workshop happening in Glasgow this August, informed by Stacey Simmons' incredible book of the same name.
Taking place on Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th August at the Glasgow Central Hotel, this is a unique opportunity to meet celebrated women writers, directors, producers, and community leaders. Armed with our collective stories we can create and foster powerful communities for women creatives and activists.
