Stories I Need to Tell 1

Bag om Stories I Need to Tell 1

I have been writing screenplays professionally for three decades. In that time, I have written scripts I am immensely proud of, and others that, well, let's just say, the fact they never saw the silver screen is probably a good thing for all parties concerned. I have written for major studios, independent studios, independent producers as well as written my own spec scripts, some of which you hold in our hands. It is this latter category that you now hold in your hands. In this first volume you will find two screenplays with the theme of female empowerment. The story of Esther goes back to the B.C. period of the Old Testament and tells the saga of a strong, young woman who shoulders the fate and burden of the entire Jewish nation upon her shoulders. While Esther is the story of one historical woman, Top Five is the story of two young women making history through a pageant scholarship program. The very word "pageant" generates stereotypes and stigmas. From my first-hand experience with the Miss America organization, I can tell you, the intangible benefits young women who participate in this close-knit sorority gain, are far greater than any stereotypical perceptions. Both stories deal with preconceived notions, prejudice, hatred (in its many forms), but also acceptance, love and sisterhood. These are stories I knew I had to tell in support, encouragement and inspiration for my own daughter but also, all young women.
