I have been writing screenplays for over 15 years.  Of
course the first 5 or 10 were crap, but then there came a point
where I hit the wall.  Runners always talk about a wall they
hit when they run a marathon.  I'm lazy and hate exercise of
any kind, so I have no idea what they're talking about, but the
wall I hit was the one where I finally understood.  I had read
almost every book out there, every copy of Scr(i)pt Magazine
and Creative Screenwriting I could get my hands on as I wrote
script after script and learned more and more and rewrote and
rewrote and rewrote and rewrote.

           Then I hit the wall of complete understanding.  I finally
understood structure, dialogue, character development, story
development, high concept writing -- all of it.  The next script
I wrote was FINDING PHARAOHS, which would later be titled
UNRAVELED, and would place in the semi-finals of a couple of contests named Scriptapalooza and Writer's Script Network, along with another script of mine titled FRAME.  UNRAVELED got me a WGA Signatory agent and become my first script to be optioned by an actual producer and go into development as a project, for Unizarre International, set to be shot in Louisiana in 2010. You can check it out on their website at www.unizarre.com/projects/p008.htm.  My next script was FERAL, which went on to win 2nd Place in sellascript.com's All Access Competition.  FERAL also placed in the top 15% of the Nicholl Fellowships and recieved a rating of Recommend from Script PIMP.  It is currently being pitched and making the rounds.

           My next script was co-written with screenwriter Ian Noakes, and it is titled DARK PASSENGER.  It would quickly become a Script PIMP Recommend as well, make the top 20% in the Screenwriting Expo competition and be optioned by DreamBig Entertainment.  A few more scripts have placed or won in high level contests and most recently a project with Mad Samurai Productions titled SMASHED has been granted funding through Corus Entertainment to get the wheels churning.  Wrapping all this up with my recent contract signing with Zero Gravity Management, and the rivers are flowing nicely.

           I also run a screenwriting workshop where I lead writer's in developing scripts from start to finish, as well as teach screenwriting to new and established screenwriters.  I have a background in training and teaching and the people I've worked with feel I know what I'm talking about and deliver it well.  I am currently a reader/analyst for ScriptPIMP and have also done script reading for Alliance Atlantis, Clara Nova Studios and have worked as a script doctor for Movie Jigsaw.

           That's me in a nutshell.  So why choose me to read your script and give feedback and opinions as to what works, what doesn't, what's good, what's bad, what can be done better and how it can be done better?  Why should you listen to me?  Well, I know this craft inside and out.  I live and breathe it.  I actually enjoy reading other writer's scripts and seeing if I can help find ways to make it that much better.  I also have a one time money back guarantee if you are not happy with what I can do.  Of course, there is a difference of not thinking I delivered what I said I would, and just being pissed off if I don't think your script is all that good.  If I don't think your script is good enough, then at least I will point out why and give options and suggestions on possibly making it better.  
 
           So take a chance, hire me to give you coverage, development notes or even be your coach... What have you got to lose?  Even if it's just as a cheap test drive before you take it to the bigger, more expensive guys.  But I promise your script will be better off after the experience, and you'll have a new networking contact as well.  I look forward to working with you and hope to hear from you.
