The Well Wins TWO Banff Awards

This innovative cross platform event has won no fewer than two Banff awards at the 2010 Televsion awards in Banff - best cross platform project and best interactive project.

Congratulations to Conker Media who devised and carried out the idea - it was a real pleasure to work with this exciting team. The idea of integrating a game with a drama is a brilliant one, adn something I'd love to do again.

The Well is still available online. You can see the show and play the game to discover the "fifth episode" - the pieces of drama hidden inside the game, that add up to a whole new story.



PLAY THE GAME, FIND THE GHOST, REVEAL THE STORY.

THE WELL was my first work for TV and online. It's a scary one. Stay away if you don't sleep well at night ...

The Well shows on four, ten minute episodes with game play online in between. You have to play the game to release the hidden story - ghosts, in a word - to find out what exactly happened last time the well was opened ... and stay a lttle ahead of the show.

See the episodes and play The Well game - it's like Resident Evil, according to Time Out - but with real ghosts ...



THE WELL - With Karen Gillan on the left, who is going to play the assistant in the new series of Dr Who currently being filmed. Don't forget - you saw her here first!

Nicholas Dane Paperback out June 3rd


This is the Penguin paperback of Nicholas Dane. Dramatic, eh? This image doesn't do justice to the flashy siilver arrows. I'm very happy with it.

I'm doing an event at the British Film Institute on the South Bank at 2 pm on June 5th for the launch. Also, I'm writing an article in the Guardian and doing an interview for the Sunday Times. Last but by no means least, Sugar magazine are using Nicholas Dane to launch their online book club - great stuff.

Win an interview with me and a signed copy of Nicholas Dane. Enter here.

Los Angeles Times review
Interesting review of Nick Dane from the USA in the LA Times..  Interesting how these themes come in waves - I had no idea other writers were taking on similar subjects in this way..
