Writer

As a journalist, then more recently as a copywriter and scriptwriter, I have written for projects around the world.

It’s always been my dream to share some of my more creative work ~ particularly Monologues and Scenes ~ with my fellow Actors. Finding original monologues can be difficult, I know. Feel free to use these in whatever way you wish (although, obviously, copyright remains with me.)  I would love to hear your thoughts on these pieces.

And please check back in coming months as I post more.
