I wrote fiction for many years and always hit a certain ceiling until I met David Morgan, a literary agent who had studied with Lagos Egri. David opened my eyes to a deeper understanding of the craft of storytelling. As a teacher, I find that many writers struggle because while they believe what they are doing is the same as published authors, they are more often blind imitators. By teaching people to recognize how popular stories are told, I try and help them transfer that understanding to their writing. I'm a produced playwright, and I find theater to be one of the most primal forms of storytelling. Two of my after life plays, Satan Offers Lassie a Room of Her Own and Judas, will be performed this fall in Boston and Provincetown. I've done film work for hire, and have worked for Neal McDonough and Billy Snowden. I've also done script work on several low-budget films.
