Synopsis/Details
From sea to shining sea, the President and First Lady are at each other's throats, willing to tear apart their family for the sake of power. And their poor daughter is caught in the middle. But not some preteen hornblower (I see you, American President) -- a full-fledged member of Congress running for her own re-election against a bastard more than happy to compare her to her dysfunctional parents. If you'd wished that Hillary had not stood by her man, this script is for you.
All Accolades & Coverage

"Bedroom Politics is political gold as a concept... a well written script that features a strong female character backed by important political, social, and family issues... The dialogue is spot on and has a lot of memorable moments... The characters overall are in great shape... Overall, the script is ready to be shopped around." -- WeScreenplay

"Bedroom Politics is a solid political comedy... A cheating presidential candidate is a familiar trope for these kind of stories, but you take it in new directions that lead to some great comedy... Overall, I think this script offers a solid foundation for a comedy. The characters are well-developed and could easily attract big-name actors, and the battle of the sexes formula is a tried and tested." -- Fresh Voices

In the last months of my PhD program -- between finishing my dissertation and graduation day -- I came across a book on screenwriting. I'd always wanted to write fiction and had tried novel-writing, but never enjoyed writing long descriptions. It never occurred to me to consider screenwriting, even though I'd always loved movies and TV. Once I started learning about the craft and writing scripts, I couldn't stop. I finally found a fiction medium that I love! Go to bio
