I have been writing plays for many years, some have been published, others performed, others broadcast. Some, like "Dreamjobs", a short play for five teenage girls, has proved very popular with amateur groups - it has received as many as over a 1000 productions over about twenty five years. Some of my plays have been published and some performed in America, Australia and Portugal. Some have been broadcast e.g. "Trainspotters" which was broadcast on the BBC twice (I later re-wrote it as a novel and it was published).
If anyone is interested to read or produce any of the plays listed herein please contact me.
Some of my plays are available from (1) Samuel French Ltd. (2) Lazy bees Scripts (3) The Dramatic Publishing Company, Chicago.
