Clarke, who was also a personal friend from my teaching years in Sri Lanka where he lived}.
Specializing in edgy, contemporary intelligent fare (& also metaphysical action ala the Nolans) & making inroads into the Mainstream, & (HBO-oriented) Cable-series w/ provocative, insightful themes & dialogues. I'm also into contemporary theatre & interactive cross-over formats & forums.

* Looking for Creative Collaborators / Co-Writers for upcoming New Cable-Series that I will be pitching soon to major showrunners : a contemporary hour Dramedy that is a biting, hilarious & provocative commentary of an inter-generational hybrid modern family of our bewildered present times.
