Author Bio:
|
I was encouraged by my high school English teacher to follow a writing career. He may have been correct but he also had terrible breath so I joined the Navy. This took me to Okinawa, Vietnam, Spain, Italy, France, Greece. About the only foreign country I missed was Los Angeles. My journeys returned me to the land of my birth, Hawaii, where I finished college, Chaminade University, twenty years late with a 3.86 GPA; below egghead level but respectable. I ran a bikini shop in Waikiki and sold Avon products, reaching fifth highest in Hawaii sales before I quit to work nights at a gas station (setting a record for night time sales) while writing and publishing THE AVON MAN and writing another novel, GOOD WAR BAD WAR, unpublished. Both are available as screenplays. I have completed four (4) screenplays. Listed in the Top Ten on MovieBytes website are DONALD AND THE DRAGON LADY'S DAUGHTER (#6 in Romance) and BITE ME. (#3 in Fantasy and #9 in Horror) The former, winner of the Hollywood Institute contest and BITE ME, comedy winner of the Screenplay Festival, along with THE AVON MAN and RIDE TO VENGEANCE, have made me a consistent finalist in a number of notable screenwriting competitions. THE AVON MAN would be also be an excellent vehicle for TV and RIDE TO VENGEANCE would rank well along side the classic westerns. Sorry about blowing my own trumpet. My first excursion into Los Angeles was to receive one on one instruction on writing a screenplay from the administrator of AMLC Productions. She had never done this before and I can pretty much guarantee she'll never do it again even though I have sworn that I'd be 100% serious if the occasion should again arise. I have made multi-millions of women ecstatic by marrying two that weren't them. Less said the better. I don't wish to blemish my otherwise spotless reputation. I am sure you would find me a comfortable companion on an extended movie production site. In my life as well as my writing, humor is liberally distributed and might pop up at most unexpected times.
