About Me
Anthony (a.k.a. Tony) received much encouragement from English and creative writing teachers in high school, who fought (though lost) for him to graduate with honors in English even though he was a transfer student who had only been at his high school for two years. His creative writing teacher once told him, "The world is gonna hear from you some day!". At age 40, after a career in software engineering taken up to pay the bills while raising a family, he is now working to make that happen.
Type of Writer
I continue to explore many different formats - TV and film scripts, short stories, plays, drabbles, articles, poetry.
Interests
Within writing, dialogue is what I'm attracted to most. For me, there are few feelings in the world like writing a great piece of back-and-forth between two people which actually means something, or provokes feeling, or both. I also enjoy cooking.
Favorite Genres
Sci-fi
Favorite Authors
I count myself among those who have been greatly influenced by the life and work of Rod Serling. Insightful, emotional, and masterful, Serling's work remains many decades later a shining example of TV's potential approached.
Favorite Music
Jazz, Classical, Pop
