Hi everyone, figured it was time to properly introduce myself here on Stage32. I’m Robert Breedlove, a screenwriter and founder of Surf City Productions LLC, currently based in Winter Park, FL.
I write true‑story, character‑driven dramedies, grounded in real pressure, real stakes, and the strange corners of early tech culture. My feature Surf City, a dramedy based on true events from my time running Anchorage, Alaska’s first MMO‑centric internet cafe. My short, which is set in the world of Surf City, recently placed as a Semifinalist at the Chicago Script Awards, and I’m continuing to refine and build momentum with the project.
I’m here to connect with fellow writers, filmmakers, and especially producers looking for grounded, authenticity‑driven material. I’m developing additional projects under Surf City Productions, all rooted in true stories, entrepreneurial grit, and the human side of survival in unconventional worlds.
I’m currently unrepped, but like many of us, I’ve built everything so far through my own hustle, discipline, and a systems‑driven approach to the craft. Looking forward to meeting more of you, swapping experiences, and finding collaborators who resonate with character‑first storytelling.

Welcome, Robert Breedlove. Your background and the authentic, specific world of Surf City sound incredibly compelling. That semifinalist placement is a strong sign you're on the right track. Given your focus on true-story, character-driven material, you might find a lot of value in Stage 32's Consultations with an exec (https://www.stage32.com/scriptservices)!
