I've been here a while, but everytime this introduce yourself weekend rolls around, I'm working on something new.

At the moment I'm trying very, very hard to reduce my Christmas feature film (The Legend of the Toymaker) to a one hour TV movie. I can't believe how hard it is! It's killing me. I feel like I'm destroying the story by gutting out all the beauty and majesty. Unfortunately, an epic tale in the line of Avatar, Narnia, and Lion King are unproducible in this era. If you know of anyone who'd like to read the original screenplay for the feature, let me know (or just go to my profile and take a gander for yourself). It could and would be beautiful as an animation also. I've had great feedback from multiple actors wanting to attach themselves to it.

But even more important, at this moment, is my fourth novel in the McGee Crime Series will be published next week. Stay tuned... I'll post more about SAVE THE GIRLS when it's available.

I recently became obsessed with adapting my novels to screenplays. I'm about halfway done with Counterpart--a Russian conspiracy story about switching Russians with their politically powerful American Counterparts.
