...can, quite frankly, do one. I've just rounded off my day by sending the wrong link to a casting director. Which link? Why, the one with the trigger warning, of course. I don't cock up by halves. How did I do it? Well, I wrote a short cover note and explained my...

Reflecting on Sunday (TW: rape)
Trigger warning: Rape. I've been trying to get on with various jobs all day today but the events that came to light last night are still bothering me, so I've decided to blog now rather than later, as I was planning to do. This is a really sensitive situation and I'm...
That was awesome *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap*
EDIT: Since posting this blog, serious allegations have been made about the owner of the school. I haven't named anyone in the post, but the school is easy to find using the details I mention. I will not be attending this school again and do not recommend or endorse...
This is more like it
S'up dudes and dudettes? I didn't blog yesterday, did you miss me? Clearly you did, as lots of you were on the site reading about being a growed up. Either that or I have a stalker that read that post 28 times. I think I'm comfortable with either situation. I'm...
Pushing out the shit
Yeah I know, my titles are getting worse. But when you think about it, they're also getting "a bit meta", as I believe the kids say. Today has consisted of waking up, falling back asleep again, going to the gym, panic-writing what I thought was an eight-minute set,...
Being a growed up
Today's life lesson: If a bowl looks cracked and you think it's a good idea to gently pull it apart to see how close to snapping it is - DON'T. I seriously thought I was going to end up in A&E at one point, as my middle finger didn't want to stop bleeding....
Nope. Still can’t think of a title for this one.
My girlfriend just put Mrs Browns Boys on, so I had to get out of the living room and do something. I know, I know... I could have written some material for my set, or tidied up the BrightonActors.co.uk website, or edited some of the hundred million unedited photos on...
Who am I, again?
I'll be honest with you. I have no idea what this blog is going to be about. I just had an urge to write, and as the cat has, for once, curled up in her bed instead of on my lap (I give it five minutes until she hears the typing and tries to stop me), I thought I'd...
Let me tell you about my penis
Me again. Yeah, I know I said I'd start blogging more regularly but even I didn't expect another one before the year ends. Okay, so there's only an hour left as I start writing this, and by the time it's finished I might have missed that deadline, but even so, two...
Refocussing for 2018
Well, 2017 certainly was an eventful year. And on the whole I guess I have to take it as a success. 2017 was the first year that I've been fully self-employed and survived. My last attempt ended badly with me going back into part-time work with a shit-tonne of debt,...
Here we go again…
Today was a day I've been striving to reach for a couple of years- I handed in my notice at my day job. This week I was lucky enough to be cast in a TIE panto tour in December. It's not the West End, but the volume of work means that I'll be able to sustain myself for...
Edinburgh 2016 – Full rundown
Right, I've deleted the old blog posts and created this single post containing details of all the shows that I saw. I had an amazing time - I got to hang out with some amazing people and generated lots of ideas for my own show next year. Here's the rundown: Wednesday...
