Author-Screenwriter/

Training - screenwriting

My formal training took place over two semesters at Quinnipiac University under the tutelage of Liam O'Brien, professor of communications, when I took basic and advanced scriptwriting. O'Brien has professional credits including Emmy and other award-winning documentaries that have been shown on public television, in national and international film festivals and broadcast internationally. He has worked as a director and/or producer for Discovery Communications, Turner Broadcasting, National Wildlife Productions, Audubon Productions and CBS News and has served in a variety of production capacities on over a dozen feature films. O'Brien received his MFA from The Art Institute of Chicago, a master's from the University of Rhode Island and a bachelor's from Fairfield University.

Screenplays

Fox Searchlight invited me to submit one of my scripts to them
for review and consideration.

I have been writing scripts for some time and have a large body of work. This includes
several features and many shorts, most of which could be extended into features.

Published stories

I am in the process of writing a science fiction series,
THE EPIC AND ESSENTIAL ALEPH TO TAW CHRONICLES.
It consists of many books that will reveal an unbelieveable
story when it is finished.
The first book is SPIRITUAL DESTINY.

Reception of my published works:

- Clyde Phillips, a writer and producer for the award winning DEXTER TV series gave
my short story a FIVE STAR OUT OF FIVE STAR RATING.

- FAILURE, one of my science fiction short stories went to NUMBER 2
on the Amazon Best Selling U.S. Short Story list.

- WILLARD'S FUNDEMENTAL FORCE, one of my short stories
went to NUMBER 3 on the Amazon Science Fiction Anthologies list.

- CONFLUENCE, one of my novellas went to NUMBER 9 on the
Amazon Psychological Fiction list.
