Introduce Yourself : Moonveil - A Town Twisted in Time by Paul Gustafson

Moonveil - A Town Twisted in Time

I’m a writer-creator developing MOONVEIL- A TOWN TWISTED IN TIME, a grounded psychological sci-fi drama about memory, identity, trauma, and fractured time. The story follows Rita Woodley, a neuro-divergent janitor accidentally thrown 100 years into Moonveil’s past, where shimmering anomalies distort time, familiar faces hide unfamiliar truths, and trust becomes as fragile as memory itself.

I’ve completed the pilot, drafted Episodes 2 & 3, built the pitch deck, developed core series-bible elements, and composed a companion soundtrack piece (“Veil of Time”), now in final production. I’ve also produced a suite of character-avatar videos and a curated set of tone assets featured on the project website: MoonveilTVSeries.com.

My work focuses on character-driven worlds where emotional truth intersects with speculative reality. Moonveil is a slow-burn, atmospheric sci-fi mystery in the tonal space of Dark, Severance, and Station Eleven, exploring grief, neurodivergence, fractured timelines, and the unsettling calm before a deeper truth reveals itself.

Recent Milestones:

• Completed pilot + drafts of Episodes 2 & 3

• Pitch deck, series-bible elements & brand identity complete

• Companion track “Veil of Time” in final production

• Character avatars & cinematic tone clips in development

• Project website launched (MoonveilTVSeries.com)

• Pitched 60+ managers/producers with multiple script requests

• Long-arc mythology refined & world mechanics tightened

I’m here to connect with producers, collaborators, and champions of grounded sci-fi who value psychological depth over spectacle and the human heartbeat inside strange physics.
