Biography
Successful scriptwriter with scripts sold to Hollywood and in Europe, including FOREVERMAN which was commissioned by Paramount Pictures (producers: Stan Lee and Robert Evans).
HERO.COM and VILLAIN.NET are Andy's double series of books - the series and the anti-series - which reinvent the superhero genre for a young-adult audience. Published in tandem either series stands alone, but are perfect companion pieces; interweaving plot and character in places and providing an exciting, new take on an established genre thrusting it into the present for the Playstation Generation.
'Tweens and younger teens who have wished for super powers will be drawn to this interesting concept, and there will be plenty of action to keep them reading.' -- Booklist
Andy has also written several comics and graphic novels for Markosia.
Comics: KONG KING OF SKULL ISLAND (issues 4 and 5), HERETIC (issue 5) and RITUAL.
Andy is currently also writing his first adult fiction novel, EPICENTRE - manuscript available.
