If you write in more than one area, what is your next most favoured genre?ComedyWho is your favourite author(s)?Nick Hornby, Sue Townsend, Marion KeyesAnd your all time favourite books? (You can change these at any time, by the way ...)I enjoy a laugh and basically read for fun - whether it's the Adrian Mole books taking me back to childish obsessions, collected ramblings of favourite comedians, or the camp charm of chick-lit. I'm also a sucker for the story-telling power of JK RowlingWhat are your working habits when you write?ProcastinatoryAre you the edit-every-sentence-ten-times type, or do you prefer to let rip?Some self-editingYour ultimate writing ambition?To actually finish a novel, be proud of it, and hope at least one other person enjoys it; particularly if that person is my husband,Tim, who has been patiently waiting for me to write something more than poems about evil coathangers and odes to poo.Your worst habit?Not saving documents that I work for ages on on a dodgy computer that is prone to crashing. That, and filling out forms and writing nonsense when I could be working on my 'project'.Your opinion on the books industry?Too much celebrity and hype, but good books still get throughWhere do you write?In my head, occassional words make printWhat else do you want Word Clouders to know? eg: do you have 9 cats / like paragliding / eat nothing but tinned fish / work in the bath / live in Kettering?Left Australia and moved to Ireland where there are no jobs, no sun and no excuses not to write.

by Slippers 2 years agoHi, Sinead. Head over to this post for all the Nano talk.
http://www.thewordcloud.org/forum/topic/1576/page/1
Happy writing. -
by ianmitchell 2 years agoHey Sinead ..... not professional per se ... though i do get paid for writing a column on lifestyle/financial stuff and have had a book in that genre published - I even got a tiny advance! .... but i have recently pitched my publisher with a short story book and am awaiting their cynical response eagerly! ...... thanks so much for your very kind comment by the way ...... -
by Antony 2 years agoSo God Complex?? What are you going to do with it?? I think it would be a great 30 minute 6-8 episode series.. If that is the avenue you were hoping to persue! -
by Antony 2 years agoCheers for reading!!! I know spelling, not my strong point!!! ;-) Glad you enjoyed the overall story though!! :-)
-
by Antony 2 years agoHey... I put the first 10 pages of my script on my blog.. If u fancy a gander?? ;-)

by Joey 2 years agoYeah. Well you'll have to enjoy the sun for me I'm stuck in bed. Where in Australia are you from? A had an Australian drama teacher for years from Perth and I have family out near there somewhere. -
by Joey 2 years agoHi. Nice to see someone else living in Ireland there aren't many of us here. Your right about the sun thing!
-
by Antony 2 years agoI am working on 2 scripts right now. The Fifth Column - a political thriller. Also one called Chosen, a bit less realistic.. I will take a look at your work in a bit.. Although i am prob not the best to give it constructive feedback. Comedy is not my strong point as i am prob the most unfunny guy on the face of the planet. So you are Australian? Mega!! ;-)
