I passionately craft screenplays, promotional reviews, and serial fiction. In the past, I wielded the pen under the pseudonym Helen Wheels. Nowadays, you'll recognize my work under the author names S.L. Stallings and Sharon Stories.
Embarking on my screenwriting journey in January 2013, I delved into the world of digital film production at Shoreline Community College, gaining valuable insights into the intricacies of filmmaking. Progressing from a production assistant to the role of 1st AD, I honed my skills on various sets. Amidst my studies at SCC, I wrote and directed the short film "Ghostlight" and contributed as a co-writer and crew member on three award-winning short films, among numerous others.
After earning a BA in New Media Communications from Southern New Hampshire University in 2018, I became a full-time freelance digital content and copywriter, crafting compelling narratives across diverse industries, including technology, education, digital marketing, and film.
In 2020, I returned to academia, undertaking a graduate degree in creative writing focusing on screenwriting, culminating in an MA earned in 2021. This academic pursuit provided a deeper exploration of my passion for storytelling. In July of the same year, I achieved first place in a memoir writing contest on Vocal.Media.
My creative endeavors include serial fiction works like "The Truth About Sadie Wilkins," a captivating gothic horror story, and "The Shift," a gripping dystopian sci-fi tech thriller. My projects "SOSH" and "Opt-In" comprise a larger initiative encompassing a short film script and a television series. As I continue to evolve as a writer, my commitment to weaving compelling narratives remains steadfast.
