WRITTEN BY QUINCY O’NEAL (2015) A talentless author submerges himself within a deranged literary world. He has an unnatural tendency for being in the right place at the right time when an author dies. An opportunist, he profits from the authors’ deaths by stealing their unfinished works and passing them off as his own. He soon begins to question his choices while trying to find a sense of balance between his thievery and conscience. Between the films, director Brendan Sweeney, writer/producer Zack Eritz, and the cast of both films will answer questions and share stories of their experiences.
