@IrvineIqbal I’m so sorry for your loss. Losing a parent is tough no matter their age. My sympathies to you and your family.

🧵 RIP Dad ❤️ Sadly my father passed away. I managed to spend some time shaving and giving him some personal care not anticipating what would come. He was thankful and said he felt much better. The difficult part of his passing, it was around Father’s Day.

I’ve received a massive amount of help from the WGGB, negotiating a somewhat gnarly option agreement over the course of nearly six months. I don’t have an agent and without the guild’s help I’d have been screwed. So I 100% recommend going to this, and becoming a member.

Back in London, letting go of all my ties and selling everything I own. Such a weird feeling but it is what it is.

This @tweetCDN report confirms what we already know; that schemes don't work. Broadcasters, producers and commissioners need to actually engage under-respesented writers with REAL work opportunities. The talent is out there, there just needs to be the will to use it. #writers ✊

WGGB calls for a ‘complete reset’ following a new report on writers, directors and producer-directors from @tweetCDN today, which highlights the serious lack of progress being made by broadcasters to engage diverse creatives writersguild.org.uk/wggb-calls-for…
