Last year, I watched a YouTube video interview with a working screenwriter who said it took him ten years to make a feature film. What a coincidence; that’s how long it took me to make a deal for Purgatory Station, recently released on Amazon Prime, Fandango, and Tubi. And when I say a feature, I don’t mean a microbudget indie that plays on the festival circuit. I mean a film with a legitimate distributor that gets it onto proven streaming networks. At the risk of immodesty, this was a goal I wo...

Back in March through April of this year, I took on the daunting task of writing my first horror script. The title is “ABOLITION”.

I was conflicted with the idea of writing a biopic about an abolitionist or a haunted house horror movie. When I posted these thoughts on Stage32, a fellow writer suggested combining the two. What a stupid idea (ha, ha...) Right? Wait…wait a minute… A slavery horror...
