Laurence Shorter

Author

I'm living in: London, UK
About Me:

I am a writer and comedian living in London. I've just written my first book - about Optimism, and my search for it - which is being published in January. I am very excited about this. Mucho calor! Right now I feel knackered, as we say in England, because last night I did my first live comedy dance act for about two years - my first since writing the book. It was highly experimental, and my body agrees. Anyway, I am visiting Canada in January to promote my book and cannot wait. See you then!

Notes

Jaye Blakeley says:

Laurence, I saw you on The Hour and think we should meet. I am female, 32, professional, well read, and think we would hit it off. Are you optimistic about love? I am. Email me for more information (and police check maybe? lol) @ - bjayeb@gmail.com - I love to read, travel, have stimulating conversation, I've lived in the UK and I have a very pessimistic father too. I also consider myself a realist and if for nothing else would love to meet you to hear more about the people you have met.
