The year was 1999. The threat of Y2K hung large in the air. Ross and Rachel got drunk and married in Las Vegas. The Blair Witch Project terrified audiences across the globe. And in the background, blaring out of every major radio station, Alice Deejay asked us: "Do you think you're better off alone?" Now, … Continue reading The Alice Deejay Conundrum
Just like the prodigal son, I've returned. After almost a year away from blogging, I thought I better give the ole girl an update. Mainly because I've been sending my CV out with links to the website, and an out of date website is not a good look. But you know what is a good … Continue reading “Don’t Talk To Me About Love” Round 2

I've been having a bit of a wild week. I've had several panic attacks, the worst I've ever had, and also had a new experience with paralysing anxiety. I've never had that before! It was wild! I literally couldn't move because my anxiety was through the roof. However, ten minutes later after I recovered, I … Continue reading Optimism and Potatoes
REJOICE. CELEBRATE. APPLAUD. I AM MAKING PROGRESS! GO ME. I'M THE BEST. I am the best, but that's (surprisingly) not what I want to talk about. I have just this moment completed an online course from UEA (University of East Anglia) called An Introduction to Screenwriting, and I feel like a weight has been lifted … Continue reading POSITIVE PROGRESS
No, it's not about Pink Floyd. In fact, that is my entire knowledge of Pink Floyd. So if you were mislead by the title and expected this post to be about them, then shame on you. It's about me, as all of these posts are. I mean, it's my blog, I've been working on a few … Continue reading Another Brick in The Wall
A question I get asked a lot is "How are you so good looking?" A question I get asked less frequently is "How do you write a show?"
