Edward is a London-based writer by way of Yorkshire and Dorset with a love for drama, genre and LGBTQ+ stories with a mischievous streak. 

He wrote on KAOS, Charlie Covell’s genre-bending series for Netflix, and is currently developing original TV projects with companies including Channel 4, Pure Fiction, Bonafide Films and Riff Raff. His debut queer horror feature is in development with Lunapark Pictures with the support of the BFI Film Fund, awarding funds from The National Lottery. 

Edward is a Channel 4 Screenwriting Course alumni and a BFI Flare x BAFTA Crew mentee. Previously he was paired with Firebird Pictures through Channel 4’s 4Screenwriting Mentoring Scheme and made a BFI NETWORK @ London Film Festival alumni. 

When he’s not writing, Edward enjoys walking his dog, doomscrolling and telling everyone to watch The Leftovers.
