Writer, AWGIE-winner, dog dad, currently in a messy divorce from reality. Fresh to this app, so kinda clumsy - but what's new.
we had several excellent meetings with producers over the weekend at the Melbourne International Film Festival's 37ºSouth Market industry meet n greet.
Is there anything quite so unnatural as an introverted writer pitching their project to financiers? Maybe not - but we did good!

my writing goal today is trying to attain the focus and discipline of Arby when she eats (pet-friendly) gelato

really thrilled to be writer/creator on this new tv project with support from Screen Australia; "Dadhood" is a comedy-drama which casts a critical yet compassionate eye over some of the juicier areas of today's discourse: male entitlement, pronatalism, and the need-to-breed

so thrilled to be the writer of the film "If/When" which had its cast and crew screening last week. Comprised of intricate yet spectacular stop-motion animation, it took four years to realise this time-jumping story of a love that defies the universe

caught this movie just then & it was all-round great: surreal, smart, beautifully performed; esp liked the mordant representation of a writer using details from someone else's real life to serve their creative ambitions, raising twisty questions of appropriation and identity

i've co-written a play that's just been announced as part of this year's lineup at the KXT Theatre, Sydney; it's about angry rock energies, inspired by the likes of Sinéad O'Connor & Courtney Love, that bridge media, generations & styles ...

on my rewatch of the #sopranos and just got to this bit (if you know it, you know it) that still bites so hard: testament to the way the writers were prepared to push the limits of the format, ruthlessly and brilliantly

a photo from our writers' room last week for a new TV series in funded development ... it's a nice pic cos it clearly shows we're still getting on: no food/drink thrown, and a minimum of blood spilled.

in the spirit of Bluesky intros, i should say amidst writing on various film, theatre and tv projects atm, my most important role is administering to every need/whim of a rescue greyhound named RBG #dogs #DogsOfBluesky
