Where do you live (City, State, or Country)?  
Vero Beach, FL

Your script stood out among hundreds of others. What was the inspiration for your
story and why did you write a script instead of a short story or a novel? 
I met Capt. Fred Head who told me the basics of his true story.

How long did it take you to write your script...and what is your writing process? Do you
outline...use index cards...white board...or just start with FADE IN? 
The first draft for this script was written 10 years ago.

What is your ultimate ambition as a writer? 
Have a movie produced.

Was your entry at The Wiki Screenplay Contest a full script or “the first ten pages”?
Why did you make that choice? 
Full Script. I appreciate the judges' feedback.

What’s your all-time favorite movie or television show...and why? 
Back to the Future.

What advice do you have for writers hoping to win a contest or place as a finalist as you
have? 
Pay attention to the feedback.
