Hastings Writers Group was very fortunate to
welcome local script writer, poet, producer and performer John Knowles. He
presented a workshop on writing comedy, sharing very funny stories of his own
life and experiences. We were treated to videos of performances some of John’s
work. These showed how easy it is to make people laugh – if you happen to be
extremely talented, intelligent and blessed with a sharp, sometimes dark, sense
of humour. John gave us some useful tools to help us prepare for our
forthcoming sit-com writing competition. These included advice on character and
plot set-ups as well as some practical tips relating to script writing and the
best reference books and computer software available. Members were entertained
and inspired in equal measure.
