About David

Although been on here for a while, only started writing in 2016 when I started a writing a drama pilot and series bible. I have a very corporate working life in IT and communications and find that writing drives the creative part of my brain! Have worked a lot on my writing style and process and still a long way to go, but am enjoying the journey!

After the drama pilot I wrote a short film, Eighteen Weeks, which I was very lucky to be able to get produced and shot in February 2018 and finished in September 2018; this was an amazing experience and gave me more of the writing bug - link to the Facebook page is below.

Over the past few years I have written a 30 minute episodic series called Awakenings, completed my drama pilot Normalville with Series Bible and Look Book and have recently completed my sci-fi thriller feature film, Oblivescence.

Looking to network with other people who enjoy writing!
