About Mark

My journey as a scriptwriter mirrors the plot structure of a good thriller script, which is apt as Thrillers are my go to genre.

I had an unexpected job loss as an inciting incident, I've went on the journey of discovery through countless screenwriting books and courses until I reached my Midpoint - my first Consider rating on coverage.

What followed though was not the glittering Hollywood career I'd imagined, but a series of disappointments and rejections that made me question whether I had what it took to be a professional screenwriter.

Thankfully I made the leap to my 3rd Act following some great advice and feedback from a very experienced Industry consultant who help me see all was not lost. Now I just need the courage of my convictions to see my journey through to the happy ending.
