Pennington is an award-winning creative director and copywriter with over 20 years of experience in film and television advertising, creating campaigns for major studios and leading independents. The Othello Club is his first novel. It has been developed for television by Paramount+ as The Revenge Club.</p><p><br></p><p>We had a great time chatting with J.D., hearing about his transition from a graphic design and copywriting background into the world of storytelling. We also talk about enduring 10 to 15 years of screenwriting rejection before deciding to write a novel, and we get some interesting anecdotes about the profound impact of reading Bram Stoker's <em>Dracula</em> at age 11, as well as his dedicated process of writing his debut book during the early mornings and weekends over two years!</p><p><br></p><p>Link:</p><p><a href=\"https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/the-othello-club-j-d-pennington/7901761?ean=9781917415125&amp;next=t\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Buy The Othello Club now</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.jdpennington.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Visit J.D.'s website</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/j.dpennington/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Follow J.D. on Instagram</a></p><p><br></p><p>Support us on Patreon and get the podcast early and ad-free, along with other great benefits, including a bonus episodes: <a href=\"https://www.patreon.com/ukpageone\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.patreon.com/ukpageone</a></p><p><br></p><p>Page One - The Writer's Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.
