Sad to hear that TERMINATOR 2 screenwriter William Wisher has died. Here's a great interview with the man. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xj56...

Lovely doc about the seminal BBC series MOVIEDROME. The Alex Cox years were certainly seminal in my life. youtu.be/TuA_m2llcRQ?...

I used to agonise over typos in my work. Now I don’t care because at least it shows that it is real, that an actual human wrote it, with all their faults and foibles. Embrace human inconsistencies.

HOW TO SURVIVE THE WILD Coming soon. #screenwriter
Just to mark the date. I finished a new, original spec script today. A horror film. First screenplay I’ve written without a co-writer for about 5 years. Low budget, one location, 6 characters. Proper chamber piece. It’s a vampire film as well. #screenwriter #featurefilm #lowbudget #indiefilm
First set of production stills from the set of British Gangster Thriller IMPROPER BASTARDS (co-written by me), with Alex Sabga-Brady (BAND OF BROTHERS) & Danny Webb (ALIEN3), & directed by Rick Roberts. Now filming in Sussex. #screenwriter
Just seen the trailer for HOW TO SURVIVE THE WILD. Excitement levels rising!
As a writer, it’s not every day you have a feature film begin shooting… andrewdavidbarker.substack.com/p/properly-i...
