He wrote and directed the short film, Mailman (1996), produced by Sandra Bullock, which premiered at The Sundance Film Festival, as did his feature directorial debut, Black Circle Boys (1997), to critical acclaim.

His novel, Serpent Girl, was published by Random House in 2006 to rave reviews and three editions, which he has adapted into a series for ITV America. He's working on a new novel, I'm Letting You Go Now.
