Lucy Daniel Raby

Welcome to my website, where you can find out about me and what I’ve done. I have earned my living as a writer for 40 years, mainly in children’s TV, books, theatre, and film. After a few years traveling and living in the US, and 15 years in advertising, writing commercials for the likes of Stephen Fry, Miriam Margoyles and David Jason, I moved into kids TV. I’ve had over 60 screen credits, several books published and 20 plays published and performed. I’ve been agented for 30 years and belong to the Writers Guild, Society of Authors, and Bafta. I am currently working on an adult fiction, middle grade fantasy and a film version of my CBBC comedy drama Big Kids. I also do workshops in schools and universities and write local reviews.
