Can't wait for my play THIRST to get out of my head and onto this stage. ..Liverpool Everyman & Playhouse theatres. HERE WE GO!

This statement's a misjudgement. Revealing the depth of non-understanding.

One week left to enter the wonderful Northern Writers' Awards, lads! NWN are such a fab organisation - I'm SO grateful for all the opportunities they've given me over the years, especially all the support I got after winning one of their awards in 2022. Enter now if you can!!

As of today at 6.20pm, I've written 33,950 words of script feedback in 2024. My brain is full. It's operating on a one-in, one-out basis. Tonight I'll remember to put a lid back on a pen but I'll forget how the remote control works.

I have tried to change channel before using my phone. Hello again that level of tiredness😵‍💫

Here we go! So pleased to be in good company as a mentored writer for Paines Plough's #TourTheWriter. Wonder what great plays will spring from this initiative?

Thanks Anna Lawlor, it was a real pleasure to host for BBC Writers, so glad you enjoyed it!

Congrats to everyone involved in #lostboysandfairies. Superb cast and amazing mix of music, theatre and total heart wrenching realism. Finally, an adoption story that tells it like it is. And loved the Welshness too. Deserves to win everything. Duck Soup Films BBC Writers 👏🏻
