Leilani Holmes

London, United Kingdom

I’m a professional actor and I screenwrite and make films in my free time. My directorial debut ‘Death of the Dinosaurs’ was an epic 15 seconds and was nominated for a British Independent Film award in 2006. I’m a member of The Writers’ Building a selective network of screenwriters headquartered in Los Angeles.

    Well done all. "They danced down the streets like dingledodies, and I shambled after as I've been doing all my life after people who interest me, because the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn..." - Jack Kerouac, On the Road,
