Paul Aston A) Screenwriting genius B) Writersroom colossus C) Upcoming writer chief scout …..Oh yeah, and my mentor. So yes, it’s pretty amazing. Paul allowed us to relax awhile, letting the daze of being in the BBC offices wear off. Before he came and spoke to us about our bursary and what direction we would like it to go. Once I had told him the concept of my screenplay I was hoping to write, he instantly supported it and guided me, emphasising which areas of the plot I should concentrate on most. Paul had also organised a tour of the BBC Blast Studio and for us to sit in on a meeting of script readers. It was great to finally meet Paul and tell him my idea and for him to be so supportive of it. At the moment I’m in the midst of plotting the piece scene by scene. I can’t wait to see what I can produce with Paul’s help.
