My work is original, inspired, thought-provoking, and entertaining.
I am excited and ready to move into the production phase of my career. I am inspired and dedicated. Writer's block; no problem, I have a folder full of stories for books and screenplays.
From 2018 to the present, I have written four short scripts, six feature screenplays, and one TV/Pilot. All have received multiple Official Selections and/or Awards (Over 95). I am not limited to a single style or genre. I have stories of Christmas, Hollywood, Lords and Ladies, Deep South, Comedy, True Stories, Rodeo, Wild West, Drama, Small Town Life, Faith-Based, Time Period Love Story, Fantasy, and Horror.
A few of the Judge’s comments from multiple screenplays: “The terror of the opening pages of the script really comes through . . .”, “The tone of this script is truly sublime. It is clear you have an expertise for writing southern dialogue. . . Characterization of this small town evoke brilliant imagery.”, “extremely realistic . . . it provides an excellent cliffhanger.”
I self-published my first book, “Seasons Once Upon My Innocence,” and received an award from Literary Titian: “bestowed on a book that expertly delivers complex characters, intricate worlds, and thought-provoking themes. The ease with which the story is told is a reflection of the author’s talent in exercising fluent, powerful, and appropriate language.”
The second book in the Seasons series, “Seasons II Justice is not for the Weak,” was released in June of 2019. The TV/Pilot script “Seasons” is adapted from the book series. My screenplay, “Journey of Innocence Lost,” is based on a portion of the book.
As you can see, I have been able to produce a variety of styles and genres that have all been recognized. I have a Christmas novel in editing and multiple screenplays in progress.
The Bible says: “We have not because we ask not.” I am asking you to take a chance and see what I have to offer. I am confident, but not arrogant. I am easy to work with and am open to suggestions. I appreciate your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Blessings,
Lea Ann
