About Norman

I’ve been writing for several years. I’ve completed a dozen feature length spec. screenplays one of which is with an agent in California. I have also had the chance to work for hire on several feature length screenplays. I’ve written and published five science fiction novels titled “The Encounter”, “Contact”, “The Submarine Effect” , “The Sentinel” and “The Key”. I teach Creative Writing and Screenwriting classes in Houston, TX for Leisure Learning. I donate my time to a non-profit organization called “Skills for Living” mentoring 15 and 16 year old high school students. I have also been given the opportunity to speak with children as young as 11 or 12 about the art of writing. If you need to contact me please use normanfitts@

The world as we know it is gone and those who orchestrated the end of our existence never believed we would take the rest of the world, their world, with us, but like many who came before them they failed to understand the power that gave birth to the American sprit and hundreds of years later that strength of spirit will rise from the depths to once again claim its rightful place in a world that has mutated into something very, very lethal. I've written a 4 night TV mini-s series for this novel.
