Shortly after the terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001, there
was a substantial increase in "holy sightings." All over the world
images of Mary, God or Jesus were reported in the highly
unlikeliest of places and objects. "Heaven's Rivers" takes place
during this time. Daniel reports for duty as a new priest in a
Catholic parish serving the veritable "crosshairs" of two wealthy
and impoverished neighborhoods. His supervisor, Father Cliff,
believes Daniel's sudden interest in becoming a priest is
compensating for the loss of his beloved wife years before. Daniel
meets Juliet, a troubled youth whom he ministers to and takes into
the rectory. Juliet is accused of euthanizing her grandmother at
Daniel's behest. When Father Cliff confronts Daniel about the
accusation, Daniel claims to have been advised by the voice of the
Blessed Mother Mary. "Heaven's Rivers" is a two-act dramatic play
that explores a man's faith in God, in others and in himself.

"They Don't Make 'Em Like They Used To" is a play in two acts about
the changing face of American culture in small manufacturing towns
in the latter half of the 1980s.
"Hot Rod Hot Dogs" is set in a restaurant in the town of
Blakesville, California, circa 1958. The owner of the restaurant,
Mimi Nawrocki, is in danger of losing her business if the drag
strip across the street gets closed down by Mr. Benson, the corrupt
deputy mayor of the town. Swenson has convinced Mayor Tyrone J.
Meane that the town needs to convert the real estate currently
being "wasted" by the drag strip into a new, much more lucrative,
golf course. The kids who race at the strip would be forced to drag
race in unsafe areas, such as in the streets of town or in the
nearby desert. Betty Jean Dale, one of the teens that hang out at
"Hot Rod Hot Dogs," is very upset to hear that the strip and
restaurant could be shut down. Betty Jean's father, Tom Dale, is
the architect who designed the drag strip and got the town to
approve it, against the deputy mayor's wishes. Tom argues with
Swenson and tries to convince the local police, headed by longtime
friend sheriff Roger Druyor, not to shut down the strip. The strip
is ordered shut down. Betty Jean's new boyfriend, Jake Carson, is a
hot-rodder who suffered a tremendous loss in a race when he was
pitted against the mysterious "masked racer." Shortly thereafter,
his girlfriend, Joanne Caputo, dumped him and joined a gang called
the "Lone Wolves." Jake starts seeing Betty Jean, and Joanne starts
going out with the mayor's troubled son, TJ Meane, who has secretly
been in love with Betty Jean for years. But Joanne's not really
attracted to TJ. She has been forced to spend time with TJ to
distract him from the frame-up being perpetrated by the leader of
the "Lone Wolves," Dirk Skagg. Dirk is being paid by Swenson to
plant evidence linking TJ to the destruction of some private
property in town. This would get the boy sent to juvenile hall,
subsequently disgracing the mayor, paving the way for Swenson to
become the new mayor of Blakesville. Featuring songs written by
Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart, "Hot Rod Hot Dogs" is a musical the
entire family can enjoy

"G'Noo the Baby Roo's First Christmas" was first conceived of as a
holiday bedtime story for my children. There is even an audio
recording of the original story which I made for them back in the
late 1990's. Eventually, it evolved into a stage play intended for
young audiences. "G'Noo" is a short children's play about a young
kangaroo, known as a "joey," who sees humans celebrating Christmas
by exchanging presents but isn't quite sure what to make of it.
Eventually, G'Noo asks her parents about the holiday but they
aren't quite sure what it's all about, either. The play focuses on
what would happen if there were no human around to teach animals
what Christmas is all about. How would these animals interpret a
"Christmas" beyond its religious significance? However you
celebrate the holiday season, please enjoy your time with "G'Noo
the Baby Roo" and may all your holidays bring you nothing but joy.

side. But they can't tell any adult because, while down there,
anyone with a cell phone finds that their devices aren't working

they're trapped. However one text message is received and comes
through on a cell phone VERY clear: "I'm coming for you "
A story told in screenplay format. Who speaks for the dead?
Spineless is a dark supernatural thriller exploring the possibility
that spirits of those unjustly and brutally murdered have dreams
and expectations, too. Detective Noah Beaumont is brought in on the
scenes of a series of bizarre murders in a small town in Florida.
Four people, three women and one man, have been brutally murdered.
Portions of their spinal columns have been surgically removed from
their bodies, and then the bodies are meticulously sewn up again.
Beaumont 's young daughter, Brittany, has been seeing apparitions
of two dead children for weeks, but has no idea who they are.
Neither Beaumont nor his wife understand what Brittany's
reoccurring dream means, at first. While his wife consults with an
unusual array of specialists on Brittany 's problems, Beaumont is
forced to work his case with an FBI agent who was once his partner.
The man had "frozen" in fear during a sniper attack. Beaumont
learns many truths about Brittany 's visions, the Spineless killer,
and even about himself. Spineless literally refers to the victims,
but this story is also a metaphor for the struggle of courage
opposing cowardice.

billion. Or, is there another option? What ensues is an exciting
race against time as the timeline must be restored before the
celestial temporal rift collapses. "Trade" was well received as a
screenplay at many festivals during 2010 including the Great
Hollywood Pitchfest.
