I love to read books and I love my pajamas, and I think the two go well together. My daily interests typically include my current writing project, the Red Sox' lead over the Yankees, and what the last episode of Lost really meant. I always make time for my family and I love that most of us are together in Los Angeles (you just had to go to college in Boston, right Quinn?). I play the bass guitar and my band recently celebrated its fifth anniversary. I love movies that suspend my disbelief. I love Los Angeles like a second mother and all she has to offer.

Start pounding those keys, because your big break could be right around the corner! The 9th Annual Big Break International Screenwriting Contest, sponsored by Final Draft, is accepting early submissions by Saturday, March 1st, at a discounted rate of $50 per entry.
With over $30,000 in cash and prizes, free trips to Hollywood for industry meetings, and participation in CineStory’s annual writer’s retreat in Idyllwild, this is a fantastic opportunity for any screenwriter.
At the CineStory retreat in Idyllwild, writers meet with several retreat mentors to discuss their script submissions and possible personal pathways to a professional life in the business. At the conclusion of the three-day retreat, the Big Break contest winner will select two industry mentors with whom they will work for one year.
Previous judges of the Big Break Contest include Joel Schumacher, Todd Phillips, and Eva Mendes. Last year’s judges included Antwone Fisher and Brian Spink.
