Interests

Would it be an obvious answer to say, film and television? And I love my Martin acoustic guitar. Not in sad, lonely kind of way, though Lucy does like the blues...

Books

To Kill a Mockingbird, 1984 and anything by Elmore Leonard.

Movies

Casablanca, Jaws and Annie Hall is a pretty good afternoon.

Television

Soprano's, Buffy and Spaced is also a pretty good afternoon.

About Me

Aspiring screenwriter, learning the ropes, hanging onto the folklore of 'nobody knows anything', and mixing my metaphors wherever possible. I'm based in the UK, working as a book designer.

I've written a couple of sitcom pilots, which have had very positive critical comments from production companies and agents. I believe they're waiting for the right commercial environment...

...so, I'm currently working on a screenplay.

Goal

I just read an article in Script magazine, where the advice of the newly crowned Kings of Comedy was, 'just finish, then do it again.' At the moment, that's my goal.

Contacts
