My top 5 albums/EPs from 2023

#5 – Solace by Iress

Genre: Doomgaze

If you’re like me and can be at peace with feeling low, if slow and pensive moods often feel like home, then maybe the slow beauty of Solace may also resonate with you. This EP is haunting yet familiar, sad but beautiful and honest.

I am king of TV?

I’m only an emerging writer – but it’s still nice that somebody left me this message in a workplace bathroom.

Could that happen to you? Could your beloved, wonderful project end up being ruined, cheated, abused or squashed?

Well, yes. Yes, it could. Continue reading

Will writing something great be enough?

If you leave a tooth under your pillow or beside your bed, the tooth fairy will leave you money. If you behave all year and resist being naughty, you will get more presents from Santa. And if you write a brilliant script, then the agents, the producers, the deal makers and the money will all come flooding to you. Right?

What’s this? Is it a career breakthrough?

Walking Tree


“I believe in a different way of looking at the world, in finding hope and inspiration, especially where there might appear to be none.”

Known for his unique observation on life – sometimes insightful, often just odd – Kryz Woodhouse’s writing is dramatic, entwined with comedy and not afraid to delve into themes of death, depression, mental health, spirituality and the supernatural.
