I am a writer in as much as anyone who can think and put those thoughts on a page in the form of words, is therefore a writer. So that pretty much accounts for a large chunk of the population. Now this is where it gets difficult. What sets me apart? Ok, so I have a vivid imagination. Big Deal. I have been writing screenplays for over twenty years  now. Big Deal. I currently have four screenplays completed and being 'tweaked'  right now. Big Deal. I was a quarter finalist in a 2018 screenplay competition for my screenplay STUMPY COMES CLEAN, which you can read below. Big Deal.

So far so average. So why do I do it? Simply because I love the process of creating something new and original. It's like brain feed. I go hungry and I get ratty. I need to keep feeding that addiction, no matter how good or how bad the end results are. Ok, so it would be nice to get some kind of recognition, maybe even some remuneration. But to be perfectly honest, I don't need it. That's not what drives me. I do it for the pleasure of doing it. I suspect if I ever was even mildly successful, I'd hate it. At the moment I do what the hell I want, when I want, where I want, at my own speed. Basically I am a selfish writer and don't intend changing that fact.
