I live in Middlesbrough, where I write and try to make films and take photos. I have a new Canon EOS 550D, which I adore, and go through moleskine notebooks every couple of months.
I have several scripts ready, ranging from a dream-like reflection on time, memory, ageing to a couple of feature length noir-esque contemporary thrillers set in my native Middlesbrough (about darkness, deception and debt).
