One piece of advice I have heard about writing is to make yourself uncomfortable. Don't restrict yourself to what you are comfortable with. Push yourself and try to write something out of your comfort zone. You may surprise yourself! #writing #screenwriting #scriptwriting

This year will mark another year since I was the ghostwriter for Peter Buckley's autobiography. Happy I wrote it, but it was published nearly five years ago. I'd like to ghostwrite another sports autobiography in the near future. #autobiography #sport #sports

As I'm working on a script for a screenwriting contest later this year, there will be no new interviews until the end of February. My writing is my main focus this year, so the podcast will be going fortnightly when I return. More details will be forthcoming soon.
