Writing
Personal and purpose-led writing.
My High School English teacher once told me that I "write in a weird way". It's still the best compliment I've ever received.
My writing varies between a number of different forms: screenplays, stage plays, short-form pieces (essays/stories/articles). Different stories require different forms and structures; step one is always figuring out which best suits the story intentions.
I am always working on my next written project on spec, and am available for commissioned pieces and collaborative work.
"It is sad but also brilliant. The arguments and images are so competent and precise. It's not just creative - Tom has a sense of creative structure and that's the most important thing about creativity and is quite rare"
Renowned playwright Edward Bond on 'The Coffee Cup Metaphor'
Writing Samples
Short-Form Sample: Non-Fiction
Originally written as a 'cathartic think piece' in one of my many tight-locked notepads, The Coffee Cup Metaphor is a personal exploration of the mechanisms of grief. Contains themes of death, loss and grief.
Short Narrative Story: Fiction
Arch Parkway tells the story of a village with the accolade of being the 'Safest Place In The Nation'. And it is. At least, for the people within it.
Samples of writing for screen and stage can be provided upon request.
