"John is a wordsmith..."

Projects for Film and TV by John Loran
Welcome!
I have amassed a compilation of stories, scripts and synopses to rival anyone's in the industry. Just a fraction of my collection of hundreds of stories, here you will find the completed screenplay or teleplay, the first ten pages of the script, or a single page outline. I have also included concept posters for most projects. I write in any genre and for every taste -- please peruse until you find something that excites yours!
