Chosen to represent his school, and writing his own material, Terry won the London Inter-School Debating for his school two years in a row at the tender age of 14 and 15 years of age. He won a National Television scriptwriting contest challenge, scripts selected from nominations from across the country. He was then still only 15 years of age. He left school at 16 and was offered a job as a cadet journalist on a National Daily Newspaper and also wrote a weekly column for an English Trade Journal. This opened many doors that he had always dreamed of.The Editor assigned him to a famous London society freelance photographer/journalist as his mentor that set him on the path of his passion -to become a successful journalist._Over the next two years, during his travels he interviewed many famous British and International singers, entertainers, television actors and news readers, theatre artists, and prominent business leaders. He travelled continually zigzagging across England on various assignments, including assignments that took in many European countries. Looking for further adventures, and more unusual writing material, Terry with an old school pal, decided to journey across the world to Australia. Writing now as a freelance journalist for various publications as he and his pal travelled the length and breadth of Australia over the next two years. He married and settled eventually on the Gold Coast in 1979. Always looking for interesting stories, and apart from a few retail experiments, Terry decided to become a taxi driver and investigate the Taxi Industry. Terry’s experience as a journalist, writing about actual events has made him an excellent author and script writer (television and movie agents please take note) - his latest project is a script titled ... “Taxi”... based on many of the true stories written in his book “Taxi, Taxi - Hey Taxi”.view less
