Current
My first novel, The Lightman System, will be published by Wrecking Ball Press in June. I'm working on a new book.
​
I’ve written the scripts for the four short films I have directed:
Elsewhere, an adaptation of my own short story Awaydays. The story was shortlisted for the Bridport Prize, and the film screened at the London Short Film Festival.
I directed my scripts Circadia and The Weather In The House for LAMDA's department of Screen and Audio Performance.
I’ve written the original book and lyrics for a musical of Carnival of the Animals. This ran at London’s Riverside Studios, where it was received with enthusiasm.
​
I’ve written three feature scripts, Navigation, Escapement and the feature version of Circadia. I’m working on the next.

Please have a look at my CV for more detail.
LAMDA
LAMDA’s Department of Screen & Audio Performance commissions short films. The purpose is to showcase the screen talents of their graduating actors.
​
I’ve written eight of these scripts for LAMDA.
A selection of the films can be seen on their own page.
