Mark is a Welsh scriptwriter, currently manning the desk of a West London NHS hospital. His true passion is telling smart, often darkly comedic stories that make audiences laugh and gasp in horror (hopefully at the same time).
His animated supernatural comedy TV show 'Rotten Lane Haunted Pet Home' was selected by the BBC to be developed as part of their Ignite scheme. His TV Pilot 'Recension' was placed as semi-finalist in the Scriptpipeline TV writing contest.
His short works have been screened on BBC2 Wales and Genesis Cinema, London; while TV scripts have placed in schemes run by BBC Writersroom and BAFTA Rocliffe Forum, along with having a handful of plays staged at fringe theatres across London - including a comedy of manners about accidental cannibalism.
When he's not writing, Mark can be found mudlarking on the banks of the river Thames or scouring vintage markets for old Christmas decorations.
