I have edited screenplays since 2015 for members of 'Stage 32', which is a networking site for creatives of film, television and theatre. Although they are based in Los Angeles, USA, members join from all over the world, including the UK. I have had the honour and privilege of working with incredible screenplay writers from as near to home as London and as far as the USA, Asia and Africa. I have also written my own feature drama and adapted a novel into an episodic screenplay for television.
Writing a screenplay is an art form in its own right and I love guiding new and seasoned screenplay writers in the right direction.
