I love stories, and I want to make hugely commercial films that audiences react to.
I’ve been commissioned and written features, TV and radio for various production companies. Separately, I have my own slate of 4 features (options offered for 2, one doing well in competitions), a TV sitcom pilot (well received by Channel 4 and BBC) and some well-made shorts (one selling at Cannes).
Woohoo!
…but before all this…
I was writing briefs for Government ministers, reports for Number 10, and sent operational recommendations to military Generals, one who was running Iraq. Loss of life or the loss of taxpayers’ millions meant I took writing seriously.
So did red-faced Colonels who sent back red-penned remarks all over my papers. I soon learned to write succinctly, unambiguously, and deliver my message with impact. And I’m always looking to get better.
