| Introduction | I am a writer and a filmmaker, and find myself drawn to the urban fantasy, horror, and mystery genres. I make my living as a copywriter and producer, and currently I'm working on a handful of screenplays, short stories, and my first full-length urban fantasy novel. A film has recently been made from my award-winning short screenplay, The Burden, and I have the great honor of currently working on the latest Black Scorpion Film’s project, Company M. |
