I am 25 years old and have just moved to New York City to study my masters in Educational Theatre at NYU.

It’s a very exciting time, full of crazy new people, smells, sights and experiences. Things are happening every moment that move and touch me to the
extent that I am so overwhelmed by it all.

I have been writing for what seems like a lifetime and most of it to be honest is sentimental, rubbish drivel but I like to think that once in a while I am capable of producing something worthwhile. And when I do, I will pass it your way!

I have mainly posted my poetry on Urbis. A very small selection of all the crap that I have ever written. But with the commencement of this new program, I intend to write much more drama, so maybe I…

I am 25 years old and have just moved to New York City to study my masters in Educational Theatre at NYU.

It’s a very exciting time, full of crazy new people, smells, sights and experiences. Things are happening every moment that move and touch me to the
extent that I am so overwhelmed by it all.

I have been writing for what seems like a lifetime and most of it to be honest is sentimental, rubbish drivel but I like to think that once in a while I am capable of producing something worthwhile. And when I do, I will pass it your way!

I have mainly posted my poetry on Urbis. A very small selection of all the crap that I have ever written. But with the commencement of this new program, I intend to write much more drama, so maybe I’ll start posting scenes also.

In the past I have written a full length play as part of my Undergraduate degree and 2 short plays that have been performed as part of writers’ workshops.

Taking Creative writing as part of my degree was the best thing that I could have done as we were taught how to craft poetry, how to create!

I like to write in the early/late evening during dusk. When the sun is getting ready for bed and people are coming home from work. The prospect of night approaching excites and inspires me. I hate mornings and would rather stay up all night scribbling and typing, venturing out into the hustle and bustle of city night. Just waiting to hear a snippet of conversation or see something extra ordinarily mundane that might just  spark something off.

I live in hope that one day, some of my words may do unto others what the great writers have done to me. This is what Urbis is for…so if you feel what I feel when reading my words, let me know x
