Feature Scripts
I write best during afternoon to late evening. If my tea goes cold it means I'm on my game. I edit from the start every time.
At school, my history teacher always said I asked so many questions that I should write for 'Blue Jeans'.
So, I did.
@Bang2write run by Lucy V. Hay gives cracking writing advice. Lucy put me in touch with Rachael Howard and I did my first ever script-swap with her. You can follow Rachael on Twitter @rachwrite.

I started writing script in 2013 just before I hit forty. 'Psyched!' was my first script and initially was about 140 pages written on Word in a table...
...for that I apologise.
Back then Final Draft was the door hitting my butt on the way out!
I grew up on old Norman Wisdom and Danny Kaye movies as well as the golden era of British sitcom with the likes of 'To the Manor Born' and 'Allo Allo'.
An Edinburgh agent agreed to read my comedy novella 'Pluck' that I wrote as a student. Then her husband crashed his motorbike and she passed.
One of my #WIP is a twist on 'Cheaper by the Dozen' with squatters!
