Movies in Hollywood are written explicitly for teenage boys: easy sex, buxom broads; superficial idiots, all. You won’t see the screenplays here on the silver screen anytime soon, but there’s no shortage of drama, relationships – friendship! – and big-tent thrills.
And, no – “adult films” doesn’t imply pornographic flicks. It means films with real people, real problems, and; well, so much stress that raw sex is the last thing on their mind.
I’ve been working on these scripts for 15 years, paid for a minimum of 20 industry-standard analyses, and most have placed well in major contests. Many are based on true stories. All have been carefully researched to showcase realistic historical context.
DEATHCON Solar

Shiloh

The Secret State
“A reclusive, elderly man in a remote Appalachian village takes in a young female hiker on her trek down the Appalachian Trail, not realizing the alien entity inside her is desperate to find a new host.” This drama is set in my own home.
Wildcat

My Journey to Screenwriter
If you are interested in how I got interested in the dramatic craft, I’ve written a narrative summary of my twenty-year adventure. You might be interested in my book of movie reviews – think frustrated screenwriter taking out his angst on popular films of the day. Like all the screenplays and other documents here, the book is free as a nicely formatted PDF file. The screenplays are in industry-standard format.
