Alexis Croyle is a versatile screenwriter with nine completed feature‑length screenplays spanning drama, comedy, fantasy, and thriller. Her work blends emotional depth with cinematic storytelling, often exploring themes of loss, connection, and redemption through layered relationships and character‑driven narratives. She writes because the stories won't leave her alone until she gives them a place to live.
Her newest screenplay, My Best Friend Henry, is a heartfelt drama about childhood friendship, trauma, and the quiet acts of courage that shape a life. Prior to that, The Paper Crane offered a school‑based ensemble story about wishes, unexpected connections, and the quiet power of unity. Six Feet Too Far captured the emotional fallout of the pandemic through the eyes of a multigenerational Seattle family, and Is There a Doctor in the House? blended family, comedy, and fantasy with whimsical charm.
Her earlier works include Good Intentions, When She Doesn’t Smile, Love Me Dead, Corey’s Hero, and Darlin’s—each showcasing her range and ability to tackle complex emotional dilemmas with empathy and wit. Several of her screenplays have placed in national and international competitions, earning recognition for their originality and emotional resonance.
Outside of writing, Alexis stays busy with her grandchildren and fosters creativity within her storytelling community. Inspired by Lord Byron’s words, “But words are things, and a small drop of ink, falling like dew, upon a thought, produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think." She continues to craft narratives that entertain, uplift, and leave a lasting impact.
