September 1, 2016

Hello on Sunday 4th September I will be speaking at The Smalls film festival on their Think You're Funny? Learn the Secrets of Successful Modern-Day Comedy Writing panel. 

Delighted to say I am on the panel with Ben Willbond (Horrible Histories) who starred in my short Rest Stop, Lara Singer (TV Development Editor at Big Talk), Wendy Wason (Writer and Stand-up) and Mike Orton-Toliver (Borderline). The panel will be hosted by Jonathan Wakeham, founder of LOCO London Comedy Film Festival.
