New Script!












Whew! Just finished the first draft of my latest... IMMUNE. It's a sci-fi. It's a mystery. It's a love story. But mostly it's about how we have become "immune" to one another (of course there's a dual meaning to the title!) and how we, as a race, are blind to our own beauty and our own spiritual consciousness.

Check out the page "IMMUNE" to the right for the synopsis.

This script is looking for a home which will bring it to the screen!

NEW TALENT!

It's official! Two more actors are on board for Evensong: The Last Druid...


Judy Norton, star of hit 70s TV show ”The Waltons” is officially attached to play the role of ”Annette”, the mother of Catherine. Not only a beloved television actress but a theater performer and singer.

Here’s what Judy had to say to the producer about this script: “I quite enjoyed it. It has lots going on with surprises, magical elements, forbidden love, intrigue… it seems like it would appeal to the same audiences who love all the fantasy movies that have become so popular lately. I can see why you were so drawn to it. The role of Annette is wonderfully complex and I would love to play it.” We are very happy to have Judy Norton on board. She is a wonderful addition to this project. Welcome Judy!





Actor Hal Ozsan has signed on to play the evil "Duke William of Burgundy". After his well-known role as Teacher Miles Cannon on 90210 and guest starring in dozens of episodic TV shows Ozsan first gained major recognition for a recurring role as Todd Carr on the final two seasons (2001-2003) of "Dawson's Creek"(1998) Following "The Creek", Ozsan appeared regularly as the playboy fallen angel, Azazel in ABCF's Fallen (2007), and as Cassidy, the double-dealing long lost brother of Kyle Traeger in the final season of Kyle Xy (2009).

Other notable television performances include a leading role as Joey DiMarco in CBS' critically acclaimed television movie remake of Helter Skelter (2004) (TV). Ozsan's first film appearance came playing opposite Al Pacino in a supporting role in S1m0ne (2002). Many independent film roles were soon to follow. Welcome to the project, Hal!

Option!

Well, it's finally happened...
I optioned my first script! What is an "option"? It's when a production company purchases the rights to the material in order to get it produced!

EVENSONG: The Last Druid was optioned on July 14th by Druid Pictures (yes, we both like Druids!). It is a story of power and intrigue in the middle ages--of knights and ladies and the Holy Roman Church in its quest to wipe out the last vestiges of paganism. They are working out the budget now... more news to come!

Welcome!

Greetings and welcome to my web log!

I have been writing screenplays for many years! This is the sort of business in which only the stubborn survive. You can't be thin-skinned and you can't give up on your goals and dreams easily. And you MUST persist. Oh, and one other thing. You must WRITE. WRITE. WRITE!

I hope to be able to share some successful actions with my fellow writers out there so please feel free to share your thoughts and comments!
