I don't know which to feel more nostalgic about - the amount of open door writing opportunities back then or the amount of hair I still had...

About Me
- Nick R Thomas
- I have been writing humour for publication, broadcast and live performance since 1982. I am also an after dinner speaker and presentation skills coach. You can find full details of my background and speaking engagements along with hundreds of presentation skills tips in Nick R Thomas - A Public Speaker's Blog http://www.nickrthomas.co.uk/ but I have started this Freelance Comedy Writer blog specifically for observations and reminiscences about comedy writing, to republish (with permission) many of the columns I wrote for the Radio Magazine over six years and to publish topical one-liners that speakers and comics are welcome to use. Oh, and yes, I am aware that my name sounds like 'Knicker Thomas'. There is a story behind this, a tale which has drawn big laughs in hundreds of my speeches, workshops and talks over the years but if you want to know what it is, you will have to order my booklet of anecdotes entitled (what else?) 'Nick R's in a Twist! True Tales from a Professional Humorist'.
Serious business, comedy!
