Play the game, get back on the horse, even if I don't like the game and horses are for fields. Years of doing the rounds at Cannes, Berlin, AFM et al. Pitching, financing, making and doing it all again. Then an epiphany in the form of a loved ones illness, life as a carer and copious helpings of humble pie. I've gone back to pure ideas, novels and dreams from the early 90s. Hit up my profile if you want to know more. I need co-producers who like a dark ride to hell while whistling a favourite tune.
Hello Johnno - thanks for sharing your story! What are you working on now?

Thanks for asking, Cherelynn :) I have an agent promoting two books - an American Civil War Western and a spy thriller, both of which could be adapted. My main production project is SPY SCHOOL, a dark comedy drama based upon real events in 1991 surround the fall of the Soviet Union and the Acid House scene in the UK. We have a pilot written and the pitch deck should be ready toute suite. Feel free to check out my profile as I have showreel and other material up there if you want to do a deeper drill. Nice to be asked either way ;)
Here's a cover image for Spy School attached.
The acid house scene in the UK sounds really cool. I bet we have some Brits here in the community that might be interested in checking out that story.
