Dramatic Writing for the Screen
- Research & Revision
At Arteles, I focused on research for a feature script centering
around a modern adaptation of a Scandinavian folk tale, and
continued revision of current work. It was an invaluable gift to
be in the Finnish forest, and be amongst incredibly inspiring
artists. My work grew layers like moss and my writing
deepened in unexpected ways.
Her feature script, BLUE BALL, PA, a raunchy senior citizen
sex comedy set in Pennsylvania Dutch country, has been
in development with various producers and directors since
2013. This project has also twice been selected for Coverfly‘s
Pitch Week. Her feature script, MISSING, a Nordic drama
about a bewildered young chef hunting for answers to her
brother’s untimely death in the Swedish archipelago was
the winner of the American Scandinavian Society’s Cultural
Grant, was invited to participate in the Squaw Valley Writer’s
Conference, and received pre-production funding from the
Swedish Film Institute. Her feature script, LITTLE BUFFALO,
a coming of age story about a girl trapped in the illegal drug
world of her parents, trying desperately to find her voice
among the mess, was accepted to the prestigious Writers
Lab--sponsored by Nicole Kidman and Meryl Streep, and
was also a finalist for the Sundance Lab and the Black List
Feature Lab. Feature thriller, SHOW & TELL, based on the
tragic murder of Laurie Show in Lancaster County, PA in
1991, was accepted to the Stowe Narrative Story Lab in 2021.
She is represented by A3 Artists Agency.
