Hi! I'm Phil
Who am I? I hear you ask. This is a line of questioning I am very much used to getting, so don't worry.My answer to that is always the same. I'm fine, thank you for asking. Now have a very lovely day.
But there is much more to me than meets the eye. For instance, I am a very hard-working writer of comedy scripts and also books I am from Wrexham in North Wales and having acquired a producer/co-writer am on my way to get my brand new situation comedy SuperZeros to radio and or TV providing the wind is blowing in the right direction and I get my sail up in time. I'm pretty much versatile as I am productive.
My background is mainly in writing and acting. In the 1980's I was an active member of various I have been a member of various youth drama groups in Wrexham, performing a series of 2-act plays by a local writer, have performed Harold Pinter shorts at the Wrexham Library Arts Centre and have been on stage with the Clwyd Youth Theatre at Theatr Clwyd in Mold, all of which gave me a terrific insight into who theatre productions work, although I am yet to write a play, although it's on the cards because I've promised a very good friend.
I also have a 2:1 degree in Literature With Media from Glyndwr University in 2000 as well as creative writing credits which have been gathered over the years. I have written several books, mainly for children, 2 about a dim-witted dinosaur rock star with a magical guitar (JJ and the Search For a Scary Thing, JJ and the Frankenguitar,) and one called SpaceTwits about the first space mission of an interplanetary group of space binmen.
For grown-ups there is The Coming of the Zartangs, Projector and Deadworld. What I have always enjoyed the most was the dialogue.
When I am not writing anything at all (which is not often, let me tell you,) I am either watching it, listening to it, reading it, or playing bass guitar with a local rock band called Green Eyed Monsterz.
During lock-down I enrolled on a sitcom writing course with the wonderfully funny and talented actor/writer/stand-up comedian, the Welsh Jerry Seinfeld himself, and all-round really nice man, Bennett Aaron and loved it so much, that it was what I wanted to do until the end of time itself, even if I don't get paid for it. No, ignore that last part. Some money would be nice, it can pay for my Monster Munch. Writers like Monster Munch and that's a fact, although not the pickled onion ones. Beef but not pickled onions, don't you be jiving my a*rse with pickled onion flavoured food products.
Coming up is my brand new sitcom for radio, SuperZeros. I hope to be sharing some great news, soon. All I can tell you is that it is a comedy, it's Welsh.
Here is just some of the feedback I've had so far for my script.

"Look, not this again. Just go away. I'm busy!"

"Can I just pinch this chair? Thanks!"

"I'm confused. There's nothing on page three but words. I don't get it."
- Rupert Murdoch
"I laughed so hard, I spat out my false teeth!"
- Madonna
"De do-do-do, de da-da-da!"
- Sting

Actually, he isn't. He commands a rubbish transporter called 'HMS Reject.' The orders from Admiral Bright were perfectly clear, any distress calls must be handed over to a responsible adult. But when they receive one from the Nurgs, the politest species in the who universe, the urge is too much. But to save them, they must complete three impossible tasks given to them by the evil Grizflaks.
