A Rediculously Funny
Sci Fi Comedy
Panto Comedy
Several years ago, inspired by my hamming it up in the local Pantomime, I started working on a novel called 30 Seconds.
It was a satirical comedy going nowhere fast, each character seemed to take centre stage. Then I realised each character had their own story to tell, and the stories was not a novel, but a series of Novellas.
Here are the first 3...
Diva Diaries
A Dame Called Derek - Diva Diaries
Book One
A romantic comedy with no age limits. Derek wants freedom from the pantomime, George the director and his mother. His mother, however, is determined her son will be the greatest Dame ever and as she holds the purse strings neither Derek or George can argue.
George befriends Charlie the writer and Deloris the costume designer. Together they create a costume and a part that has Derek running for his life-until his mother finds out. Then it is George who is not only running for his life but out of the pantomime, leaving Derek to fend for himself.
Will Derek break free or play the most miserable dame in a dress as laughable as a cat in pajamas?
A Dame Called Derek is the first novella in the Diva Diaries series. A laugh a minute farce set in the world of Scottish amateur dramatics. You will find romance, comic setups, and a fire, of epic proportion with an ending that will intrigue, entertain and have you chuckling in your shoes.
