Summary
I am a freelance creative writer, journalist, humorist and screenwriter who has written three commercially published non-fiction books (all with major publishers). I have also written a top-selling ebook, professional blogs, radio scripts, award-winning feature film screenplays, comedy sketches, weekly opinion columns, and articles for magazines in the US (including Salon, Mental Floss and Mad Magazine), the UK (including Total Film and Dreamwatch) and Australia (too many to mention). I've been writing professionally since 1987 (when still at school), and worked extensively in public relations before becoming a full-time freelancer in 2000.
