Aspiring screenwriter. Film obsessed.
In a previous chapter of my life, I had a decade long career in the world of politics.
I am now pursuing the craft of screenwriting and am looking for potential collaborators.
This includes fellow writers who are looking for a sounding board to bounce ideas off of and help edit each other's work, or even a writing partner if the fit is right.
Ultimately, I'm hoping for someone with a different background than my own to broaden my perspective.
I am also interested in working with aspiring directors or producers who are looking for a script. Shorts or features.
Cheers,
Phil
Unique traits: My previous career in politics included speechwriting, developing communications products and advising members of Cabinet on policy proposals. I was able to gain experience in several portfolios, including Foreign Affairs and Economic Development. All together, I believe my work history provides a unique background and breadth of knowledge to apply to the craft of screenwriting. On a personal note, I have a disability that, while sometimes challenging, does not prevent me from writing and also provides a unique lens through which I view the world.
