Glorious Revolution

LOOKING BACK, GOING FORWARD Thank you for taking the time to read my resume-cum-mission-statement. I started writing screenplays proper in 2007 and since have written 11 of them, two of which have been archived. My nine active screenplays are: 1. Splendid Isolation, about a girl lost in the Alaskan wilderness; 2. On Board, about an ex-detective on skid row who gets a second chance; 3. Glorious Revolution, about a girl torn by her allegiance to the establishment and to the rebellion; 4.

LOOKING BACK, GOING FORWARD Thank you for taking the time to read my resume-cum-mission-statement. I started writing screenplays proper in 2007 and since have written 11 of them, two of which have been archived. My nine active screenplays are: 1. Splendid Isolation, about a girl lost in the Alaskan wilderness; 2. On Board, about an ex-detective on skid row who gets a second chance; 3. Glorious Revolution, about a girl torn by her allegiance to the establishment and to the rebellion; 4. Howlingween, about a holiday turning nasty when organ hunters come after the family; 5. Howlingween 2: Clarry the Clown, about holiday-makers trapped on an island with a seriously un-funny clown; 6. Howlingween 3: Red River County, about a beggar taking revenge on townspeople whose ancestors didn’t care; 7. Howlingween 4: Beastly Mist, about a swarm of flesh-eating insects terrorising a small town; 8. Counterchance, about an FBI agent prepared to do anything to save his family; 9. Once Young, about teenagers in love in a world they don’t understand. My mission is for audiences to engage emotionally with the worlds I create resulting in feelings of warmth and finding more love in their own worlds. In 2020, I’ve so far: 1. completed the second draft of Howlingween 4: Beastly Mist, possibly the final instalment in the quadrilogy; 2. thoroughly revised Howlingween 3: Red River County; 3. completed a revision of Splendid Isolation (formerly, White Days); 4. completed a revision of Once Young, my 191-pager. In the remaining half of 2020, I wish to thoroughly revise the remaining five screenplays, looking to simplify descriptions, reduce plot diversions, rid inconsistences, put in place double time in scene headings, reduce parentheticals and rid proof-reading errors. Again, thank you for reading my statement. May you enjoy a successful 2020.
