How I did it

How to tour Europe with a trailer tent

It took me

2 months

It made me

Harrowing but fun

How I did it: After graduation in 1987 I planned a journey with my familyfrom England to Turkey through Eastern Europe and the Balkans. We took an 1100cc Mini Metro and towed a trailer tent with three kids myself and wife. We saw Vienna in Austria, Budapest in Hungry, Count Frankenstien's castle in Romania, Bulgaria and much of Turkey. On our return we went to Meterori in Greece, Sophia in Maccedonia, Sariyavo, Pristina and Venice.... It was great seei… Read how I did it…

How to be taken hostage

It made me

feel alone

How I did it: It was happenstance. I had no choice I was flying at the wrong time. When the Polish Dockers went on strike in 1981 I was flying from London-Heathrow to Karachi in Pakistan by Aeroflot. We waited a long time at Heathrow and eventually boarded the plane. Once in the air we were diverted to Leningrad (or Petersburg), and then put in a hotel overnight. They said they would take us by train to Moscow. Well, they flew us the next day to Moscow… Read how I did it…

Jo Badpenny (Magic verses Miracles) 3 months ago

I am currently writing a serialised teen farce for TV film production called Jo Badpenny

The concept is good and it may need some further adjustments to the episodes after submission. I think it is an idea we will see copied in other formats in the future. However, it is a whizzzz of an idea.

This is Lucky Jim brought up to date in a school setting. The inspiration is “a successful 1950’s film in black and white*, but the development goes far beyond the original short. That is all I am saying at the moment.

become a screenwriter (read all 2 entries…)

I have almost completed a screenplay... 3 months ago

I have almost completed a screenplay called Henri and the Alien.

It is a staggering piece of writing. If it is ever made into a film or animation it will with the right direction be a prize winner of the first order. The story is entertaining, the plot is humorous and it breaks the rules of genre in such a way it will always stand out as a major shift in cinema. It has the same endearing character as the book of the same name.

The three closest films to it already made are Time Bandits, Alice in Wonderland and Spirited Away by Studio Ghibli. You may call it the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy of its time.

About me:	“LOOKMAN was born south of London in the 1950s and his pseudonym derives from a wise sage. He draws his inspiration from his childhood when children made their own entertainment and adventurously roamed. He writes strong characters in unusual situations, dynamic and contorted plots to keep the reader guessing. He published three children’s books in 2008; Henri and the Alien, Mihte’s Quest: Kids in the Underworld Children from the Sea. He hopes to double this in 2009. The first of a series of novels about ‘Singen Halfpenny’ called and ‘Jo Badpenny ‘Jo Badpenny at School.’ These tell about his early life and are a prelude to his later extraordinary spy novels for teenagers. The last is his second Mihte novel. An epic called ‘Mihte’s Challenge: Can Jack defeat the Dread Lord of Annihilation.’ Editors and proof readers have raved that this mind blowing novel is another ‘Lord of the Rings’ or ‘Star Wars.’ The book is nearing completion before spring He has just appointed a new agent and actively promotes his own work using his past experience as a political activist and a press officer. He was the second youngest ever-elected councillor. He previously taught TEFL and wrote and broadcast radio plays on BBC Radio. With a refreshing style, he writes fantasy chillers, humorous adventures, mysteries, science fiction, and historical children’s fiction.”
