Professor Sam North

I have published 8 novels. My 2004 novel The Unnumbered was long-listed for the Man-Booker prize and in 2010 I won an Eric Gregory Award. My first novel, The Automatic Man, won the Somerset Maugham Award. I haven't published a novel in 15 years but I have written two books about writing, the first on prose fiction, Five Analogies... and the second about screenwriting, The Instinctive Screenplay. In 2017 I sold a spec. script to Kevin Loader (producer of the Death of Stalin among many other films), which has fallen by the wayside.
