In a world where mass production often overshadows individuality, Handmade Books stands as a beacon for writers seeking to create something truly special. Our approach is simple yet profound: we aim to encourage new writers to attempt alternatives to traditional methods of 'end products' other than poetry, the short story or novel. Be positive! Dig yourself out of the rut! Move on to explore the exciting experience of adapting short stories, to One Act Plays, Pub Theatre, TV or Film that reflect YOUR, the writer's, distinct voice and vision.
Chris, who established this site twenty years ago, has always believed in the power of the written word to exploit those hidden opportunities which are often viewed as being impossible to achieve through traditional writing skills. The above approach not only sets your work apart but also allows you to engage with readers and viewers on a deeper level. Feel free to use any of the material on this site for experimental, educational, or non commercial-gain. Join us at Handmade Books and discover the satisfaction of writing scripts and acquiring the skills to show, not tell.
