I am looking for a writer who can capture the grit and glamour of a true-life 'boiler room' empire. This is the story of a Buffalo-born Italian circle that took Las Vegas by storm, built a fortune, and survived a war on two fronts (the Law and the Mob) only to end up in a federal cell together. I need a writer who can handle fast-paced dialogue, complex loyalty dynamics, and a high-stakes crime narrative."

I need a professional, well documented, and accredited Screenwriter to transform a lifetime of gathered stories, interviews, and personal records into a compelling multi-episode series. This project is a Dramatic Limited Series based on my life. I have already assembled key narratives from various "players" from my past; I now need a seasoned writer to structure this into a professional Series Bible and a Pilot Episode (and potentially subsequent episodes).

• TV/Series Experience: Proven track record in writing for episodic television or limited series.
• Technical Mastery: Proficiency in industry-standard software (Final Draft, etc.) specifically for teleplay formatting.
• Structural Skills: Ability to create "A, B, and C" storylines that weave through a single episode.
• Legal: Must be comfortable working under a strict NDA and a "Work-for-Hire" contract where I retain 100% of the Intellectual Property rights.
