Web Site: www.fortunemoon.comBiography: I began screenwriting in 2007. I've written 5 features and a lot of shorts. I am interested in 'writer for hire' assignments and enjoy writing action/adventure, horror/thriller, comedy, drama, you name it.
My screenplay "Chasing The Dead", adapted from the book by acclaimed Horror/Thriller author Joe Schreiber, is currently being shopped. In addition, my production company FortuneMoon Studios has produced the script as a 4 issue comic book. Reviews were so good that the publisher, IDW, is publishing the 4 comics as a single graphic novel in May, 2013. Read more about Chasing The Dead at
www.chasingthedead.comMy short, "Better Be Good", won 1st place here on MoviePoet and was produced by Rich Keel. See it here:

In addition to my scripts here on MoviePoet, I also came in first in Round 1 of the NYCMM 2008 Challenge (Title: Balls Out)
