Scripts I'm working on right now


I have just completed my first Modern Family spec script, and am in the process of writing a spec Glee script. I have spent most of the last 15 years focusing on features (18 written so far), but now I've decided to try something new :)

Watch for Bull Tag, my main feature, someday in theatres. It was a quarterfinalist in the 2009 Scriptapalooza Screenplay Competition.

Zamboni Confessions is another one of my features, and it is 90% done and waiting to be judged.

This is where I will be living, in Beverly Hills :)

The Decision

In a month I set off on an adventure to re-create who Emily Thierry-Gray is, and what she does.

California: to go or not to go. That is the question I've been pondering over these past 6 months. 

I've wanted to be a screenwriter since I was 12 years old when I read my first X-Files script. That was it, I'd found my calling and I've been writing scripts as a hobby ever since. Now, you'd think that if you've always known what you were meant to do, then why not do it first off, instead of 15 years later? The answer is simply that I was afraid of not being good enough. To quote Portia de Rossi, "what if they could immediately see that I wasn't exceptional and special, that I was merely an average girl?"

But I've now decided, screw it, you'll never know what people think of your writing unless you let them read it! So, I'm off to Los Angeles for 9 months (or longer), to learn everything I don't already know about screenwriting from the New York Film Academy on the Universal Studios lot in Burbank, California. I'm following my dreams so I can wake up every day and be excited to go to work from this day forward.

Please join me in my journey to happiness and fulfilment in Los Angeles :)
