Aloha! Yes, I do live in Hawaii… for 25 years now. Before that, LA for 25 years. I was always a theatre person, so I just started writing scripts this January after I finally retired. I like true stories, and my first script was a one-hour pilot for a mini-series about a girl kept in a mental hospital all her life. My second was a feature about F. Scott Fitzgerald, dealing with an important, unexplored summer in his life in 1935. I also wrote a one-hour spec based on “The Right Stuff.” I am now outlining another mini-series about San Francisco in the Gold Rush days.
Since I don’t live in LA, and am much older than the norm, I am looking for ways to aggressively find exactly the right managers and producers who are not afraid to take a look at well-written, true story, period pieces, since that seems to be my wheelhouse. And yes, they are more expensive to produce.
I started screenwriting after 2 years of intense research on my part to discover who my birth parents were, and once I did, to trace my family history back to when my ancestors first stepped ashore in the New World. Nice to be here!
