About the Scripts


All of the scripts are presented in chronological order, each with an introduction. This is the first time some of them are being read by anyone. They cover various genres and are unique to their inspirations.  

I was always told to write what you know. Most of my early scripts were very personal and my later ones ventured into new territory, but there is one strong connection to them all. They were heavily influenced by movies from a very specific time in my life, primarily the eighties, but more on that later.

The scripts are presented as close to original form as possible, but I did remove any inappropriate language to keep this book suitable for all ages. There is something else that I found all over my early work. I had the tendency to use words ending in “-ing.” For example, I would often say, "He is standing at the door.” I corrected it to say, "He stands at the door." It just flows better.

Other than that, the scripts are exactly as I wrote them, but there is one more thing readers will notice: the absence of technology. Most of the scripts in this book were written twenty years ago, so there were no cell phones or internet. A lot of plot twists would be much different if a character carried a cell phone, so these scripts would need to be modernized.
