Following many years working at the coal face of film with the cream of cinema on such pictures as Sleepy Hollow, Enigma and two of the biggest box-office franchises: Star Wars and Harry Potter, Phil dove headlong into the world of writing.

Starting with screenplays, he was fortunate enough to garner interest from various high-profile luminaries including Chris (Home Alone, Harry Potter) Columbus and Michael (The World Is Not Enough, Gorillas In The Mist) Apted. He then went on to achieve some notable success, getting a number of scripts optioned.

He has also written several non-fiction books published worldwide on a variety of subjects ranging from execution to maritime humor, from scientific experiments to hostage negotiations.

These days Phil works as a script consultant, having helped both aspiring and established industry writers for well over a decade, focusing on ensuring their work reaches a submission-ready standard while also helping them hone their craft.

His clients have won or placed highly at major script competitions, had their projects optioned, while others have gone on to be produced, the best debuted at such film festivals as Cannes and London.
