Writer & Musician, Garry A

Writer & Musician

Leek, United Kingdom
My name is Garry Abbott and I am a writer and musician based ...in Staffordshire. As a writer I am a commissioned playwright (with a supernatural fiction currently in production), a children's author... (with audio stories available for sale through two on-line providers)and a screenwriter (my first commissioned sci-fi short film is in pre-production). Writing has always been a passion of mine and I recently returned to study creative writing at the Open University to study at degree standard (first year completed and passed - second starting soon!) As a musician I have ran an independent production company for a few years and composed and produced several scores for animation and film. I have also done some work as a radio play editor and producer. I was born in 1981 and as such have developed professionally throughout the 2000's - utilising the internet and social media for networking and resourcing. I am no stranger to working on briefs for people I may never meet face to face and am comfortable working in this remote environment or one-to-one. Outside of my music and writing I am also employed part time as a business and project specialist in a none-creative sector. This has given me many important skills in analytical thinking and planning that enhance my creative output, especially when working to tight briefs and budgets. I look forward to exploring the briefs on this site and hopefully making my clients very please with choosing me for their work. Garry Abbott
