The Sleepy Agent
(27 pages)

The First 10 Pages

After unwittingly reawakening a Cold War-era sleeper agent, a young man must help the disoriented Soviet find his family before the authorities find them first.

This is a comedy short script. Has plenty of laughs, but this is ultimately an emotional story about our will to hold onto those we love the most when they seem the furthest away -- literally and figuratively.

Even then, know that the very premise of the story is meant to be comical -- It's nonsense. It's outrageous. And it's by design.

The Survivor
(3 pages)

A man arrives home to find someone unexpected but very familiar in his dining room.

A quick story about running away instead of confronting what you need to.

Here are some fun story details + explanations, if needed!

The Fork
17 pages

Based on a True Story

When David is kicked out of his friend's apartment after an outburst, he encounters someone who can give him exactly what he thinks he wants.

This piece has a personal connection with me that runs deeper than perhaps all of my work so far; writing it has allowed me to fully come to peace with a particularly difficult point in my life.

The Ball

In the post-apocalypse, a boy mistakenly destroys his dog's toy ball, forcing him to face his past and fight for his life in order to replace it.
