August 2014
My feature screenplay, “Memories” was selected as a finalist for the Broad Humor Film Festival.
This small festival takes place in Venice, Ca. on September 6, 7 & 8. All broads, all comedy.
I raised money on a “Go Fund Me” campaign and I’m going to California!
LIST OF FINALISTS
This is a non-exclusive option so it’s still available if anyone else wants to give it a shot.
One of the most important contributions to my growth as a writer is the website, Simply Scripts. Not only do they host a vast library of produced and unproduced screenplays to read, but their forums and occasional One Week Challenges (OWC’s), are great learning tools. SS member and outstanding writer, Janet Goodman-Clarke, opened a satellite site, “SHOOTIN’ THE SHORTS” (STS) where she and a handful of others review and showcase unproduced shorts in hopes of getting them produced. The review below is from “STS”.

Thanks to the wonderful review by KP Mackie on STS, “Private Property” has been optioned. A Canadian filmmaker picked it up and plans on shooting it some time in fall of 2014. He has access to horses and a barn, which is the primary location. This script won 2nd place in a Movie Poet challenge. Really looking forward to seeing this filmed. I’ll post updates when I get them.
I’m very excited that “The Wishing Tree” has been picked up for production. I’ll post more details when they’re available. This story is a real tear jerker. Not usually my style of writing but I really love this one. Looking forward to seeing it filmed.
This is an exclusive option so “The Wishing Tree” is no longer available for production by anyone else.
