Stephen Batt

Stephen Batt was a truck driver in Britain, a chairlift operator in Canada, a bricklayer, carpenter, and punk rock guitarist in Germany, an advertising executive in Australia, a company director, car salesman, technology salesman, director of film and television and award-winning screenwriter in New Zealand, a painter in France, and an optioned, but sadly un-produced screenwriter in Los Angeles.

He discovered that wherever you go there’s potential for tragedy, comedy, struggle and fun, sometimes all at the same time. Many of the people he’s met are wonderful, and smart, and witty, and kind. Many aren’t. At least half are idiots. Some are dangerous and cruel. Boo. Most are decent. Yay.

Stephen currently lives in Auckland, New Zealand, where he writes, dabbles in art and design, and doesn’t go out much unless the weather’s really nice.
