SCREENPLAYS

Almost fifteen years ago, I wrote my first short film script at the behest of a fellow server in a restaurant - a baby director who promptly raised the funds and shot it. 

I thought, "Cool! I write something and then it's produced - easy-peasy." 

The intervening years have disabused me of this fallacy.

Still, my screenplays have gotten me reps (a lawyer and a top now-ex manager), a few paid gigs, and the privilege of having my work rejected by some extremely top-shelf talent. 

I've also helped produce six more shorts and a feature from my scripts; and other scripts have placed in basically all the major contests: a Nicholl finalist, two Page winners (and another finalist), an AFF semifinalist, et cetera. Once upon a time, my MARLENE THE DIVINE script got me selected for a Sundance thingy, where I connected with Daniel Kwan of E.E.A.A.O. fame. He read an early draft of my BEST. APOCALYPSE. EVER. script and claimed to like it (a later draft was a Page finalist).

Since that first short, I've written maybe five or six features (and one pilot) that I reckon can run with the big dogs, and I'm closing in on a locked script with Ben Joyner (the director of our short ABDUCTED), about a weekend when everything blew up for his prominent family of progressive millennials and their prominent Civil-War espousing evangelical preacher father (profiled in Time Magazine, and the New York Times).
