Hey,
How can I develop my successful hobby into a career?
I was born with a gift. I'm a natural comic.
I starting co-hosting a little Podcast called Naive London Girl with a non-comic US buddy.
We make two recordings per month and Mevio hosts the shows.
We're now getting over 1 million downloads per month, regularly hitting number 1 in our section in iTunes. I've discovered Tracy Ullman listens to our show!
I'm a happy Engineer by day and now I'd love to do Comedy full time.
I get fanmail and invitations for meals from around the world - men, women, black, Asian, white write to tell me how funny they think I am.
Ken Campbell even began mentoring me - he was fascinated with my facial expressions (likening me to Jim Carey/Jack Black and Lucille Ball) and my brain leaps.
Hat Trick and the BBC ask me for 'Writing'. So I've pumped out a couple of sitcoms and 20 or so 'laugh out loud while reading' sketches. They look at them and say "... but have you got anyone famous associated with this project?"
I went to Chicago in August and performed at Second City - Yes the audience laughed and the other performers liked getting on stage with me.
I'm just a woman that makes people laugh.
So experts - how do you suggest I take my comedy thing and develop further? I.e. Make my living from Comedy.
Kindest Regards,
Vroomboo
