Gary Howell

I'm an attorney by trade, but a writer at heart. I have written several shorts, and I am currently involved with a feature that I have worked on the past year that is now in development, with an Australian director at the helm. I also have a short film that just finished filming, "Country Road 12" that stars Dee Wallace ("E.T.", "Poltergeist"). My pilot script, "Bounty" won script of the month here on Talentville for March 2016 and received some favorable reviews on the BlackList. I'm currently editing it to try to make it more marketable.

I have also co-written one dramedy, "According to Plan", that was just optioned with Josh Monkarsh of Traffic City Productions, as well as with a producer in India.

I enjoy writing both comedy and drama, and tend to lean towards indie-themed pieces that are character driven. I enjoy the works of Vince Gilligan ("Breaking Bad") and Graham Yost ("Justified"), and while I'm not subconsciously emulating their work, I certainly wouldn't be disappointed if my scripts were favorably compared to theirs.

I enjoy reviewing scripts and providing advice and constructive criticism to other writers, and would welcome the opportunity to work collaboratively with any producers/directors looking to work with me on any type of project.
