John Hunter

Sent away to boarding school to get a fancy education, the members of my immediate family proudly referred to me as bilingual for an uncanny ability to speak both Standard American English and my native Cracker.

After graduation from a large brick and mortar university, a curious nature and an overactive imagination have led me down many paths: Peace Corps volunteer, sales engineer, packaging design consultant, recovering golfer and more recently, an award-winning and produced scriptwriter.

As a writer, my voice is character driven, slightly dark and quirky with a dash of humor. Many of my shorts have been showcased on Shootin' The Shorts, three of these have been produced and one other is now in production in the UK. My dystopian horror Baby Soup won the 2013 Florida Independent Filmmakers Contest, was adapted, and produced. 

Some of my scripts have been translated into prose to create a movie cinema like experience at an affordable price. Think of them as Director's Cuts if you like. These are available on Amazon Kindle globally and at other ebook sellers. As a FREE sample, please see Zentangles, a short story about an obsessive young woman who gets absorbed in her artwork.

When not being fussed over or fussed at by the woman who shares my life, I enjoy riding a large German motorcycle as big as a parade float and eating at Mom'n'Pop Diners. Currently planning my Louisiana and Mississippi Grand Willy Nilly Tour.

"There are no mysteries, just some stuff you don't know anything about," from my lips to your shell like ears.
