Final two sketches submitted to #BBCDMsAreOpen. Feels good to get it done and hopefully the producers will like what they see. #ComedyWriting #WritingCommunity

And away…

Managed to submit to 3 episodes in the end which I am very happy with. Been cracking on with something for myself, so the time hasn't been wasted.

Now we wait. Bloody ages!

Completely made up a name for a thing and just Googled it and the place technically exists, but not the actual bit I made up, thankfully! About 75% there with a sketch for E6, Party. #BBCDMsAreOpen

Written a properly silly sketch for Enemies. Hopefully some inspiration will strike for, Holiday tomorrow.

How's everyone else getting on this week?

Just submitted my two sketches for this week‘s #BBCDMsAreOpen themes 🙌Had a lot of fun writing them, but it’s also proved to be an exercise in surprising myself at the very weird avenues my brain goes down…

Help, is on its way… #BBCDMsAreOpen

Well, in #BBCDMsAreOpen and general #WritingCommunity and #ComedyWriting news, I managed to get out the corner I'd written myself into on my 'Help' sketch thanks to the Trey Parker / Matt Stone "Therefore / But" method of planning story beats. I now upgrade from vomit draft to official first draft

Sharing some of my DMs Are Open bits for the Bluesky Massive!

This was played out during the recording, but sadly didn't make the final edit.
