Hi I'm Hennell, I'm a media production student at the university of Lincoln and I have far too much interest in comedy. I spend time writing comedy sketches, and thinking up ideas for sitcoms as well as listening to too much radio comedy.
I mainly tend to write topical stuff, which occasionally gets used on various BBC Radio shows, often gets posted to my own twitter, and mostly just fills notebooks for no purpose. I'm currently working on starting my own podcast about computers & technology, which I intend to be a sort of current tech news sketch style thing, and will probably end up rather geeky.
If you're good with computers, spend to much time online, follow tech events and want to write sketches for no money, PM me for more!
I am a Media Production student, with a great fondness for writing topical and political humour as well as creating really bad puns.
So far my credits include gags for series 2 & 3 of Radio 4's [link=http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/comedy/lookawaynow.shtml"]Look Away Now[/link], sketches for BBC7's Newsjack, jokes for Radio Scotland's Watsons Wind Up, and material for link=http://www.treasonshow.co.uk/home.shtml]The Treason Show[/link]. I've also written front page articles for NewsBiscuit, and material for a monthly topical podcast from Comedy 365. I've even suggested a couple of topical puns for use on BBC4's The Late Edition.
Currently I'm writing topical jokes for various BBC Radio programes, as well as working on a radio sitcom idea, and writing up a couple of humorous afternoon play outlines.
As well as my writing I also draw cartoons, which I then publish on my blog. Although most of them are stand alone pieces I have created a couple of themed series such as those on the website nodaddy.com. Another series of 25 advent cartoons from December 2007 was recently featured in a local 'art trail', along with a couple of my best stand-alone works. Many of these cartoons can be now viewed on my website.
I'm interested in collaborating with any other like minded writers, and am happy to try working via skype or e-mail if distance is an issue. I am open to any opportunity of work and love the challenge of writing on very specialist subjects (Geeky computer topics especially).
