My theatre, television and film career has focused my attempts within that sphere. At the age of 50 I commenced my first pass at longform fiction writing with The Curse of the Matsumoto Cherrywood. What a fabulous form! Early on, I took advice from a published speech that screen writer Andrew Bovell made, in which he said that a writer should be surprised by the trips and turns of their characters. When I came to decisions that might limit the scope, I admit, I should have known better. I followed the meandering path of ghost story writing till the scope became epic. A decade of research, theatre projects in Japan and experience gained writing in the novel fiction form led me to this saga. Concurrently, I wrote the play The Intriguing Case of the Silent Forest, and a screenplay following Japanese writer Akutagawa Ryunosuke which I called Lipstick. The play was performed in 2019, two days ago I met with Korean Japanese director Kim Sujin, who says that the project is advancing. So, with the second book hitting the digital stands this month of February 2024, I am thrilled to be presenting the fruits of these Japanese influences, a series of novels on the Smashwords format. It provides a platform for writers to reach readers directly, and for that I am thankful. Please do drop me a line, I look forward to hearing your response to the story so far.vizualizați mai puține
