Stories in other forms

The Smart Phone Story
Short film — writer, director, producer. A viral favorite.
Lune Spark Center for Creativity
Founder. An arts-education center in North Carolina nurturing young writers, filmmakers, and artists — and home of the worldwide Young Writers’ Short Story Contest, which has published eleven anthologies by pre-teen and teen authors since 2016.
Different forms, one belief: a story should outlast its telling. The films taught me pacing; the center keeps me close to beginners’ courage; both feed the books.
