Paul Foster – Playwright
It seems I’m being googled. A number of vistors to this blog have found it by googling “Paul Foster” so I thought I’d try it out myself and see what turns up…
So which Paul Foster am I?
Well I’m not Paul Foster the wotudo blogger who is a developer, a technology enthusiast, a robotics geek, and vegetable gardener, who is also having great fun living a life less ordinary.
And I’m not Paul Foster the film buff, who has been collecting films for over 20 years and whose company Paul Foster Films is now in its eleventh year of trading and specialises in the selling of 16mm films, super 8 films, 35mm films and projectors.
Nor am I the Paul Foster of Paul Foster Interiors who has established a leading position in the commercial interior design and installation sector and who shouldn’t be confused with Paul Foster the product design graduate, though I do like his logo and the iShave is rather cool!
I am definitely not Dr Paul Foster BSc DipEd BEd BD MSt DPhil Senior Lecturer in New Testament Language, Literature & Theology at the Univertsity of Edinburgh’s School of Divinty at New College and an editor of The Expository Times (International Journal of Biblical Studies, Theology and Ministry).
Nor Paul Foster, wedding photographer based in Durham, England; an SWPP member who shouldn’t be confused with Paul Foster, professional photographer.
Nor am I Paul Foster USMC or Paul Foster US Navy (both Medal of Honour; one dead before my birth, the other a couple of years after) or Paul Foster CEO of Western Refining or Paul Foster the cartoonist or Paul Foster the gospel singer or Paul Foster the Scottish indoor world bowls champion – all courtesy of Wikipedia.
I am not the Paul Foster in the Highways Agency who appears to be a member of the Public and Commercial Services Union.
And thankfully not the fictional
Though I am a book lover I’m not the Paul Foster who runs Paul Foster Books established in London in 1990 and specialising in rare and second hand books.
Nor am I Paul Foster, consultant ophthalmologist at the Moorfields Eye Hospital.
I’m also not Paul Foster the DJ at 96.9 Viking FM or Paul Foster, Director of Photography at Getty Images.
Nor Paul Foster, a knowledgeable researcher with 21 years of professional experience in the capital markets, investments, trading, corporate finance, arbitrage, options and mergers and acquisitions.
Nor am I Paul Foster the prankster who apparently suffered a massive, fatal heart attack while sitting in a chair reading Shakespeare.
And sadly my Equity membership is definitely out of the window since I’m not Paul Foster the actor. (Squeaky Shearman comes to mind!)
Nope, I’m none of these. I am actually Paul Foster the playwright. No, not Paul Foster the American playwright born in 1931, but Paul Foster the English playwright born in 1968. Now you know why my pen name and indeed domain name is PAFoster.
So if you want to find me on the web you’ll need to search for “PAFoster”. Though having said that, since I have now devoted a whole page to Paul Foster and used the ‘Paul Foster’ keywords many times I’m sure this page will soon be top of the results list when you next google Paul Foster, if that is, it isn’t already!
PS: Rich would just like me to point out that he isn’t an author, an architect
or a liberal democrat parliamentary candidate.
