About David

I have been writing screenplays for 20 years. It only took 10 years to start getting it right. Now I look for help and advice from experts in the field. My writing is taken lot more seriously and have placed well in various contests. I am currently the lead writer of a feature slated to be produced in London (ORWO Studios) this coming spring/summer. My collection of screenplays include the following genres: animation (3), a family-friendly comedy, action/horror, romantic comedy (2), a science fiction spoof (think Sharknado, only funnier), a purposely bad horror (featuring the least-scariest objects in the world), a bank robbery drama (with a very ironic twist), and a dramedy. I am also the only human being to ever cut himself with a Rice Krispie.
