4 feature screenplays in comps for 2026.

The Rapture Unfolds Downunder and co-writes Flames to a Moth, Waiting For a Star to Fall, and Strays. End-times, a thriller, a Christmas romance and dog jungle mystery.

Different genres, all character-driven. #screenwriting #screenplays

The 'Rapture Unfolds Downunder' has been available for six months. It covers tough conversations and strained relationships in a small country town as biblical prophecy unfolds.

I wrote it before what happened at Bondi, before Australia lost its innocence.

@JazRignall @EverythingC64 Agree. It toppled WOTEF as the king dong.

What was the best Amiga sports-management game of all time? IMHO it was Slamball and to celebrate 30 years of this classic, here are some tips to get you started. https://t.co/wj7Jg11UXU #slamball #amiga #commodoreamiga #amigashareware #a500mini #retrogame #oldgames #winuae

'Escape from the Commodore 64' the screenplay has (so far) won one festival and placed at several others. One day, the hope is to get it made. With co-writer @belinda_missen #screenwriting #ScreenwritingTwitter #escapefromthecommodore64 #c64 #commodore64

Best c64 and c16 game ever? Have done my own mini review. Enjoy. @kkieller @johntraynor you are legends! This is the game that pulls players into the computer in my novel, 'Escape from the Commodore 64' https://t.co/yP7aXDhiJI #c64 #c16 #commodorecomputers #jackattack #retrogame

If you haven't read this old gem, you really must. Ice Station (first book in this series) was a game changer for me and I finally looked up from Piers Anthony, Isaac Asimov, Stephen Donaldson and Patrick Tilley. Still wow. #scarecrow #matthewreilly #icestation #aussiebooks

How involved are you in your cover designs? In this example, I picked the photo of the iconic steel cantilever Story Bridge which is mentioned at the start of the book. I also picked the girl and wanted the doughnut to be the letter O.
