I’ve been dabbling with screenwriting for decades, while working a day job as a graphic designer / art director. Three or four years ago I got serious.
I write a mix of sci-fi, horror, fantasy and thrillers. To date (mid 2023) I have five feature scripts available and six shorts. One of the shorts You’re Early has been produced three times and has won a few awards here and there. Hopefully I’ll have another two features available in the next couple of months.
