Synopsis: It is my privilege to share with you my 2013 Nicholl Semifinalist (and Top-Rated Black List) script, Second Place Hero. If I had to describe my script in seven words, it would be: "Imagine if John Hughes wrote Die Hard." A Black List reader called Second Place Hero "evocative of early Shane Black: pitch black comedy and high-octane action," with villains that "rank right up there with Hans Gruber." From another Black List reader: "This is a strongly imagined script that creates a unique and highly visual world that feels fully fleshed out and consistent, which speaks to the author's unique voice and vision. The script has a great sense of wit and a dark comic streak that makes for an exciting plot whose direction is difficult to predict." I thank you for a piece of your busy time, and for your consideration, and I hope you'll agree with the Black List reader who declared: "this (Second Place Hero) deserves to be seen." Sincerely,
