About Steven

After enjoying the life of a reader for many years I am now a passionate writer compelled to create fantastical fiction in varying genres. With a focus on writing feature-length screenplays and experimenting with potential ideas in the form of short stories/scripts. Not a day goes by when I am not working on my latest screenplay, engaged in a writing group, or expanding my knowledge of cinematic practices. I aim to explore this world through writing.

I have four completed feature-length spec scripts and fourteen short scripts of varying lengths from 3-24 pages long. Among other awards, my script 'THE MIGHTY VARIANTS' has been awarded a Quarter-Finalist place in the Final Draft Big Break Comedy Screenplay competition and has received a Top 10 position in the Table Read My Screenplay Comedy Genre Screenplay Competition. This script is also in Coverfly's top 8% of discoverable projects. Another script of mine called 'THE GRAND BAY HOTEL' won Best Script at the Peephole Film Fest and was placed as a Semi-Finalist in the Filmatic Screenplay Awards.

Credited work includes the light drama short film 'Drifters' starring the Grammy-nominated singer Eric Burton produced by Mad Honey Productions and Forte Pictures, as well as the family animated short film 'Catching Stars', currently in production with Malteserkreuz Film. My anthology of science-fiction and supernatural short stories titled, 'Tales of the Forthcoming', is available on all major online retailers.

If you're interested in working with a writer who values honest writing that entertains as much as it elicits an emotional response, then feel free to reach out!
