Episode description

Cap'n The Floral Sailor was born and raised in the United Kingdom. Currently an anonymous writer, he values his privacy and prefers to keep his personal life and writing life separate. He also does enjoy the air of mystery that comes with being anonymous.

For as long as he can remember he has been writing absurd worlds, characters and stories from his vivid imagination. This passion only grew when he became a theatre technician, where he worked on the most amazing of shows and events. Ranging from fabulous West End musicals to experimental one-man studio shows. Where he made friends with talented and creative people who propelled him to start taking his writing very seriously within the past few years.

Since then he has been manically writing several stories and projects he hopes to publish soon, primarily in the medium of comics and graphic novels. However, he is learning to write plays as well as screenplays soon after.

His writing is fuelled by his life experiences, which can include the people he surrounds himself with, the media he consumes, and even disastrous adventures brought on to him by misfortune. Cap'n's writing features a sense of humour that could sum up his life story - a comedy of errors.

He loves writing absurd, theatrical stories with a cast of colourful and diverse characters set in worlds where anything is possible - letting his imagination run wild.

For now, however, despite being born in generation Z, he is no better than a boomer when it comes to social media. He shares his writing journey with everyone, aiming to foster a platform that encourages discussion about writing and our interests.

In future he may decide to become a public figure if he feels ready to be one. (Perhaps as a ten million follower special.)

The Word Improv Community is a writing community united by our passion for writing and a common challenge: Word Improv.  A Word Improv challenge is where participants write a “Story” using a set of “new” words.  A “Story” is broadly defined to include a tale, poem, skit, etc.  There is no character minimum or limit.  You can learn new words and participate in Word Improv, as well as in the Pass-the-Baton interviews by following @WordSleuth on Instagram!

Pass-the-Baton Interview # 16 is the sixteenth in a series of Instagram Live interviews where contributors to our Word Improv challenges interview one another so that our community and audience learns about Word Improv writers and their work.
