10 part audio drama co-written with @mjbraddy script locked! Now onto scheduling and casting, with a long wait for our recording date in December. I do miss a massive stack of paper!

I have coined a new word ‘oppositization’ is saying the exact opposite of what’s really going on. It’s not ‘gaslighting’ as that at least is trying to convince you things are happening for a different reason.

Starting to put together my meeting plans for #cannes this year. If you’re a director or a producer looking for a new feature, a writer for hire or a script editor get in touch and hopefully we can hook up for a chat.

As River City closes, yet another opportunity has gone for new and mid-level writers. It is getting harder and harder for writers other than the chosen few to find broadcast opportunities across radio and TV and yet there are more writing courses than ever.

The short film I wrote for fellow BAFTA Connecter Syd Heather is now avaible on YouTube to watch for free, after a couple of years on the festival circuit and on Amazon Prime.

Great night at the @HalfMoonTheatre bidding a fond farewell to the amazing Chris and Jackie. Such a brilliant organisation with so many people saying what a big part it (and they) had played in their lives. This is what community theatre is and does.

An absolute classic that still stands up today, beautiful crafted and a real sense you’d experienced something truly revolutionary when I first saw it at the cinema 29 years ago.

TOY STORY was released 29 years ago this week. A groundbreaking work within the animation genre as well as the film that made Pixar a key Hollywood studio, the story of how it came to be is like taking a trip to infinity – and beyond…. 1/55
