SCREENWRITER JOINS TRIPLE HORSE STABLES
Atlanta, GA- Michael Lister, author of such novels as Power in the Blood and Evidence of Things Unseen, as well as Let there Be Life: A Guide to Inspiration for Writers and Other Creative People, is now the Senior Staff Writer for Triple Horse Entertainment. Lister, a native of Florida, is a published author and an active member of numerous professional writing associations including The Mystery Writers of America. He is currently developing and writing feature-length screenplays with director, Karl Horstmann.  
    "His addition to our team," Horstmann says of Lister, "solidifies our commitment to filmmaking. It's amazing, but when you look at all of our different divisions, we're really a throwback to the old studio system. Of course, we'll continue doing production work for our clients-if anything, this makes us far more valuable to them-but now we'll be even more focused on telling stories as well."
    Lister's writing has been praised as unflinching, real, uncompromising, authentic, and skillful by such publications as Publisher's Weekly, Library Journal, Booklist, and The Miami Herald. One of his greatest strengths is tight, tension-filled dialogue, "which," Horstmann says, "works very well with the type of stories we want to tell."
    "Fellow writers had told me for years that I should write screenplays," Lister says, "and I knew I eventually would. The writers I most admire-from Raymond Chandler to Elmore Leonard to John Sayles-do both. (page 2)
