Introduce Yourself : Screenwriter, Script Doctor, Producer and Gamedev by Tennyson Stead

Tennyson Stead

Screenwriter, Script Doctor, Producer and Gamedev

Happy Weekend, Stage 32!

Many of you have read my blogs on this site, and we have a big one in the hopper for you that I can't wait for you to read. My name is Tennyson, I've written more than 70 screenplays in just about every genre (from actual Bollywood to the most intimate memoir adaptation, and plenty of science-fiction, fantasy and magical realism as staples), and I've been developing tabletop RPG's in the gaming sphere for three decades now. I've got two films in active development in Australia, one in the States, and I'm writing my first novel.

For all those people who've written me in search of writing mentorship, and for all those people yet to do so, I've started a YouTube channel where I'm laying out all the fundamentals that keep my career strong in the face of both industry-wide and personal hardship. Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/@TennysonEStead

All my videos, and all my Stage 32 blogs, are still available on this site. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions - and if someone wants to get a screenplay written before we hit the new year, my rates are flexible and there's still time for one more rough draft before we close out 2025! Let me know, please!

Happy Holidays from Tennyson and Ipiluni - and a Happy New Year, everybody!

Best regards,

Tennyson

Happy Weekend and Holidays, Tennyson Stead! Got any plans for the holidays?

Tennyson Stead

Maurice Vaughan, I'm just trying to make sure that my wife has a fulfilling Christmas and that I start the new year strong.

Maurice Vaughan

Hope your wife has a fulfilling Christmas and you have a strong start next year, Tennyson Stead! It's a really busy weekend with IYW and things, but I plan on checking out your videos soon!

Tennyson Stead RPG's, that's so cool! My hubby is getting into game development, and its wonderful to see so many multi-disciplinary artists here as well. Hope you have a wonderful holiday season, and a fantastic 2026!

Tennyson Stead

Thank you very much, Juliana Philippi! If your guy has any questions about game development, please feel free to send him my way! There's a lot of great people to follow on places like Bluesky, and game devs tend to be a lot more open about their work than people in the film industry!

Also, if it helps, I did write this: https://www.stage32.com/blog/4009

Tennyson Stead Awesome! Told him about you, he recognized "Star Citizen" right away! "Wow...cool, super awesome" his words : ) He's not on Stage 32, but I told him to look for you on Blue Sky : ) So marvelous to connect!

Tennyson Stead

Thank you for the sub, Elle Bolan! I tend to answer all the comments, so please ask any questions you have!

Tennyson Stead

Thank you for subbing up, Dwayne Williams 2! I'm putting this channel up to try and help people find their voice on the screen, so please don't hesitate to ask questions!

Hi Tennyson. I really enjoyed your article about creating art in an authoritarian regime. I have written a screenplay that an authoritarian regime would not like. When things changed in the United States I was worried about my art having difficulty being made, but your article has inspired me to let that fear go. If you would like to learn more about my script "Jason's True Example" please let me know. I've made a trailer that gives a synopsis of the story.

Ryan Wilford

Awesome! Thanks for being a resource and congratulations on all of your successes.

Tennyson Stead

Barry Ward Congratulations, Barry! I'm glad you enjoyed the article!

Tennyson Stead

You are most welcome, Ryan Wilford.
