When and How - A Fairy Tale
A fairy tale I wrote about two brothers who made a choice with death.
I am Philip Thomas. The greatest blessing in my life is that I have always known what I wanted to do: Write. To achieve my goal I studied 'English and Creative Writing' at Manchester Metropolitan University, achieving a 2:1. While I have worked in a number of industries, I have little relevant professional work experience. However, I have valuable experience's such as having presented my work to professionals: Joff Brown, Editor at Welbeck Publishing, Tom Bonnick, Editor at Nosy Crow and Ian Morris - Illustrator and writer. The work I presented was a fully written and story-boarded picture book with a profile detailing the target market, prospective publisher and illustrator. Furthermore, I completed the Hachette run 'Business of Publishing' course with certificate of completion. I work as a freelance editor on Fiverr to gain useful experience and I have enjoyed paid work from editing.
My writing experience is broad, I have written extracts or in some cases complete drafts of: screenplays, scripts, short stories, novels, video game narratives, Children's picture books and poetry. As a hobby I create video essay scripts, analysing story in films and video games. It is a passion of mine to examine and break down a story and offer a critique.
I have a goal: my dream job is to be the show runner for Doctor Who which I am determined to achieve because I am passionate and enthusiastic without end when it comes to writing. I enjoy writing everything and I enjoy editing too so if you need a versatile, hardworking and passionate writer, my C.V. is linked here, get in touch and I look forward to working with you.
