About Me

Not sure this is the right place for me. Oldest person I have found so far is 32 and I am twice that. Anyway geht's los as the Germans say....THE GOOD BITS FIRST: Generally witty and amusing; imaginative; knowledgeable; fairly reliable; self-contained; consistent; I always ring back; punctual; romantic-ish; consderate; fairly athletic for my age; active; hard-working; practical; sophisticated; a little elitist; generally non-conformist in my attitudes and behaviour but also rather traditional; original thinker; highly innovative; articulate; laid back; speak reasonable German and some French, understand both; well educated; well spoken although a bit of a mumbler at times.THE BAD BITS NEXT: Can be rude; do not suffer foods glady but generally courteous; not always realistic in my objectives underestimating difficulties; over analytical; impractical at times; could be called snobbish but rather I consider myself elitist, not the same thing at all; have failed to make any real money so I have not fulfileld my potential as I would see it; perhaps too laid back although I feel strongly about many things.WHAT I'M DOING NOW: Basicaly retired. However I am trying to establish myself as a writer. Have just finished a 2 hour TV drama on a recent big event in the news. Now working on a screenplay about the murder in the Tower of London in 1613 of Sir Thomas Overbury. Several other projects in various states of non-completion. I also sell rare books from time to time.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet a writing collaborator. I wrote some comedy scripts in the late 1970's for Granada Television. They were never made as Harry Kershaw, the original writer for Coronation Street, did some instead and as he was a known quantity, they went with him. The series, about an insurance premium collector with David Roper, bombed. If anyone thinks they have sophisticated comic writing talent, I would be interested in hearing from them.So, any potential writing collaborators out there, get in touch.
