Writer Biography - Sean Hynes

Hello, I’m Sean Hynes and my day job is in advertising as a Creative Director. As a screenwriter the one single thing that I have borrowed from the my advertising craft is brevity. There’s nothing in any of my scripts that isn’t there for a reason. I’ve enjoyed writing them and hope you get a chance to enjoy reading some of them.
