<p>After acting in several Los Angeles-based plays during the mid-1990s, I<br>picked up the proverbial pen and became a Playwright. Then, after several<br>productions under my belt, I accepted a position as Writer-in-residence at<br>the Irish Arts Theatre in Hollywood. In turn, that led to writing screenplays,<br>and before I knew it, I was pitching movie ideas at Universal Studios and<br>developing several projects for the big screen.</p><p><br>Back in the UK, I landed a couple of acting roles for the BBC, before<br>following my other passion, music—subsequently fronting the Prog Rock<br>band Tr3nity, while simultaneously being trained in classical Opera by<br>one of the UK's best voice coaches, Craig Barbour. That began a 5-year<br>engagement travelling throughout Europe and the Middle-East singing for<br>the surprise corporate event entertainment company, The Three Waiters.<br>I then moved to the land of Oz—where after learning to play the drums,<br>I started a Rock-Edged Country band, eventually joining an original Alt-<br>Rock band called, The Fyoogs.<br><br>After the creative spark ignited my desire to write again, I enthusiastically<br>followed the light, like a moth to a flame. This time, in short story form.<br>I welcome all feedback, so please feel free to contact me at:<br>novelistinresidence@gmail.com, thank you.</p>
