Happy to announce my 1 hour, supernatural TV pilot, Righteous, made semi-finals in Tthe Script Lab’s Launch Pad TV Pilot Screenwriting Contest!<\/p>\n

Yipee!<\/p>\n

Righteous is a blend of Ghost<\/em> meets Constantine<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Its protagonist, Douglas Churchill, is a paramedic who gets murdered while trying to save two lives and he winds up in the Afterlife, where he gets recruited by a benevolent organization to save humans from death and damnation at the hands of soul-stealing rivals from the underworld.<\/p>\n

It’s my first foray into writing for TV, and it’s continuing to do well in contests and with coverage.<\/p>\n

TSL Launch Pad TV Pilot competition received over 12,700 entries this year.<\/p>\n

Fingers crossed that it advances to finals.<\/p>\n
