I am thrilled to announce that my recent script ALTER was selected on the longlist for the Australian Writer's Guild John Hinde award for Excellence in Science Fiction. Next stop, hopefully: 🎥

After a million tiny sci-fi stories, I just finished my first proper screenplay.

A short sci-fi film (naturally) all about memory.

Coming soon, hopefully.

This shot from the Before Sunrise series look like they're in an ALIEN film looking at a map of the galaxy to see where a distress call coming from:

Artistic endeavour is filled with occasions when your work doesn't result in anything.
