Introduce Yourself : The burn to write .... by Steve Herczeg

Gidday, I'm an actor and screenwriter from Canberra, Australia (contrary to popular belief, Canberra is the capital city not Sydney). I've been writing for about seventeen years and have finished two novels and 13 screenplays. I have mainly been on the stage in about a dozen stage musicals, but recently played one of the main zombies in an independent feature film made in Canberra, called Theatre of the Dead. Inspired by the movie and being a member of the Canberra Feature Film Coalition, I have rekindled the inner fire to write and managed to pump out six screenplays in the last 18 months. One of them "Death Spores" came in the top ten in the 2012 Horror Screenplay Competition. I was absolutely stoked. I am currently testing the waters with getting a team together to produce and film one of my screenplays. 2013 looks to be a fantastic year.
