Writer Seeking Agent With Contacts in Film and Television

I am looking for an agent to represent my work in both the television and film venues. Although my primary genre is fantasy, I intertwine romance, suspense, and humor to create well rounded and multi-dimensional projects. My characters are well developed and flawed enough to be unique, yet realistic. Currently I have two screenplays available. In addition, I have written script for Days of Our Lives, treatment for a prime time TV show and three novels with a fourth on the way.

Screen plays
Winning the 2006 International Gloria Film Festival and placing in the Greenlight Project, Never Can Say Good-bye is a paranormal romance that connects the present with the logging industry of the 1900. To help a friend, Elizabeth agrees to teach a writing course at a small college. She expects to find a sleepy town with a long history, but instead she finds herself dealing a violently jealous wife and the past mistakes she is only beginning to remember. Arriving in town, she finds it uncomfortably familiar. As the controlling President of the college, Judy Olson, shows her around, Elizabeth begins to realize that she has made a mistake and begins looking for excuses to leave. After meeting the famous historian, Michael Scott and his irrational wife, Shane, Elizabeth finds the past becoming more real than the present as the death of a small boy decades earlier reignites an old treachery, which could destroy the entire town. When love leads to vengeance, it is best to say good-bye.

Eye of Ra is an occult horror film that is based on Egyptian mythology. When Isis stole power from Ra, she initiated a guardian who not only had the strength to be the focal point for this great power, but who also had the ability to protect its secrets from those who would abuse them. Jealous of her grandmother and daughters’ spiritual gifts, Sandra takes her youngest daughter, Rikki and disappears. Seeking power, she searches the world for the Eye of Ra; when she finds it, it is Rikki not her that the Guardian chooses. Enraged, Sandra makes a pact with the Dark Ones; if they help her destroy her own daughter, she will use the Eye in their name. Sandra attacks in the middle of the initiation ceremony. The Priestess is killed before it can be completed. Barely escaping with her life, Rikki returns to the small town of her birth. Her physical wounds have healed, but the guilt and self-doubt keeps her from seeing the truth of her life. Sandra follows Rikki to finish what she started, bringing the evil of the Dark Ones with her, and a small northern Michigan town learns the black secret that had been buried among them for generations.

Instead of gaining wisdom, her spirit is transported back to a time before the Celtic Goddesses and Gods gave way to the Christos and when clan traditions could mean life or death. It will be paired with the novelette, Sisters of Avalon when it is completed.

Days of Our Lives
I had been a fan of Days of Our Lives for three decades: when the writing became unbearable, I started writing alternative storylines for the show and posting them on the NBC boards. What started as a protest, turned into a long term project as fans told me that they liked what they were reading better than what they were seeing on the screen. Not only was I able to remain true to the characters and the show’s history, but I also ended each posting with a cliffhanger.

The link to the thread on the NBC board and later my blog has been shared with people around the world. Not only did they encourage me to keep the ghost story going until the end, but they also gave me the courage to apply for the head writing gig. I was able to find the unlisted phone numbers to on executive producers home and the private office number to the other. Unfortunately, I used an outdated format so they didn’t take me seriously. In addition to the ghost story, I wrote to other partial storylines to prove that I could write other plots besides than paranormal. All three storylines are listed on my site at www.theresachaze.com.

Current projects

An agreement was made with a small group of Templar Knights.
