I would love to call myself a writer. In my younger days I have written the following:
- 2 fiction novels (1 was 130 pages of handwriting when I was 15 - one of my friends read it and liked it but unfortunately it got burned in a house fire a few years later. The other one is terrible and will remain in the dark depths of my old hard drive for all time.)
- 1 play that was performed at a festival in New Zealand (great audience turnout, one terrible review)
- PIlot for a sitcom plus several more episodes (submitted to TVNZ, but surprise surprise, not picked up)
- several short films
- several very bad songs
- a column for a quartely work newsletter, which I also edited during the time that I worked there
- lots of unfinished short stories

I am currently working on what began as a short story but now seems to be turning into a novel (20 pages and the plot is still not going anywhere ). I try to write each morning on the train to work. My main problem at the moment is that no matter what genre I start writing, it always seems to turn into romance/erotica (maybe I'm just not getting enough in real life...).
