A WRITER’S JOURNEY


I started writing The Rose and the Thorns, a screenplay, in the summer of 1998. This represented a whole new direction for me. Yet, in retrospect I realize I always had this creative side.  1995 was a watershed year. That April, while marketing what would be my first published article post Wellesley, someone asked out of the blue: “Have you ever considered writing fiction?” I had, in fact, written a play that my third grade class performed, and some twenty years later started to ponder writing a spec sitcom. Then, a confluence of factors continued to steadily nurture this creative seed, and I began to study screenwriting and after much perseverance and many drafts, completed my first screenplay, The Rose and the Thorns.

While continuing to write fiction—now professionally—I have also continued to grow as a non-fiction writer. See below for samples of my work.
