Writing
Tiernan is mostly writing at the moment. Literally at this moment, because he’s typing this. But not at the moment you’re reading it. Though he might be, because he’s writing a lot while also being weirded out by typing about himself in the third person. Most of Tiernan’s current writing is for kids’ TV but he’s always keen to still write for grown-ups too.
Recent writing highlights include Hey Duggee, the Bust or Trust podcast and two shows that are in development with Blue Zoo and Turnip+Duck. But for a full list of things he’s scribbled (but on a laptop) have a looksie below:
