Introduce Yourself : Intros again (I'll be shorter!) by Tobey Alexander

Tobey Alexander

Intros again (I'll be shorter!)

Hey all, I usually am late to the game with intro weekends so I thought I'd get in earlier this time! Screenwriter and author (in my spare time) work full-time as a firearms trainer policing in the UK so lets just say I'm busy...mega busy balancing work, writing, family, fitness and autism advocacy. Oh yeah, I'm autistic too! Writing has always been my escape, I've always felt like a failing outsider and yet when i pitch or release something the reception is good so for 2024 I'm going to stop doing my own legs and believe the positivity and tell the negative demons/voices in my head to shut up!

I write across multiple genres because...well that's how my brain works. I'm currently pitching a TV series to challenge a new style of supernatural superhero recruited by the Grim Reaper while re-writing a family fantasy feature (both based on IP I created and released myself).

Anyway good old English weather awaits this fine Saturday morning before I set about circuit training and then errands before being on call for work tomorrow (boooo).

Stay safe all!

Greetings, Tobey! It’s great to see you here. I’m based in Bristol. All quiet here weather-wise too. I’m taking this afternoon off to see the Bristol City v Sunderland. A great break from a very busy week. Here’s wishing you all the best. Geoff

A TV series about a supernatural superhero recruited by the Grim Reaper sounds really exciting, Tobey Alexander!

Hi Tobey Alexander! Your projects sound really fun! Have you submitted them to any Stage 32 contests?

Amanda Toney

What a great intro Tobey Alexander and your day job seems fascinating. How did you get into firearms? Have you tried to take that very unique experience and introduce that world into your scripts?

David Abrookin

Hey, Tobey Alexander! Thanks for the re-intro! Writing across multiple genres can be so fun so more power to you that your brain works that way!

Sam Sokolow

Hi Tobey Alexander - it's great to connect here in the community! Your work sounds fascinating. Have you ever done any firearms training for films or TV shows?

And I agree with Maurice - "a new style of supernatural superhero recruited by the Grim Reaper" sounds super cool. Keep us posted your progress.
