Intro

 

As a stand-up comedian, I caught the screenwriting fever and never looked back. Unlike the current generation of screenwriters who learned their craft from film school, I am self-taught and honed in my skills from my days on stage. Studio Readers described my scripts as "a fundamentally sound graphic novel style...gritty and dark writing, that will work in today's cinema". Uncompromising in your face visual impact.
