SCREENPLAYS
I write character-driven stories and love to explore how everyday people are affected at midlife, or any coming of age frankly, be it 18 (see Evangeline below) , 40 (See the Tell All below) or 50 (see Mathilda's below). The power of family and romance are usually major thru lines. I relish a strong heroine.
Some say my dialogue is direct and irreverent which pushes my dramas into the comedic. My mother doesn't care what they are called and tells me to mind my manners.... she also told me people get a little crazy in their 40s (see The Almost Divorce under Essays).
