2019 Nicholl Quarterfinalist

Nicholl reader comments:
* "The story built to truly intense and graphic, dramatic moments. Many were hard to read but they were gripping. As the story wore on it had a compelling momentum that really made the pages turn. I was engaged throughout and moved by the end."
* "This script features an unusual, tantalizing combination of elements, pairing Western revenge tropes with Civil War drama and modern-day stories about women who are reclaiming power."
* "Dawson is a great villain. You hate him on the first page and throughout the story he’s always present."
* "The script had a harrowing personality to it."
* "Created with considerable skill, this paints a bleak, but vividly powerful portrait of the Old West."
* "...the script gives off a voice that’s chilling vis a vis writing is amazing."

That latter script also landed as a 2nd Rounder at AFF. I earned a BA from Stanford and an MFA from Loyola Marymount. Note: If anyone… Go to bio
