It took me a long time to call myself a writer ... more than 1,000 half-hour teleplays, two produced features, and an award-winning short.

A “Ideas Man,” I’ve taken several screenwriting courses at NYU and New School, but, found that my journalistic experience as well as having worked in Public Relations for music industries as well as universities tend to impede my screenwriting ability as I write how I believe characters should talk vs. how they naturally speak. Hence, I have over 65 different narratives, equipped with research, characterizations, premises, antitheses and synthesizes, and have approached studios and producers, but, without an agent, they don’t accept or espy unsolicited material. I am seeking an agent or professional representation, firstly, and, finding a seasoned writer that I might collaborate with in developing film scripts, secondly. I’ve been told by many producers to develop my narratives into novels as another means of attracting producers and studio development executives, but, I prefer dramatic writing more. Thank you for your insights and suggestions.
Sincerely, Alan Champion
