Projects in Development

A passion project of depth for the team. Extensive experience in construction is guiding the research ongoing in understanding the mechanisms employed in the commodification of water on a global macro scale. The aim is to define multiple case studies and templates for scalable micro-solutions for the sustainability and protection of this unique life-giving substance. Currently being developed for non-fiction books, documentary and technical journals.

Menopause is not a problem to fix.

The book reframes this cliche and expands the true narrative for women, evolving with knowledge and installing confidence. Exploring the emotional, biological and sometimes volcanic journey of menopause through the lens of thirty years of clinical pharmacy experience, Nikki helps readers understand what is truly happening inside their bodies. Separating evidence from marketing myths, it offers practical clarity, reassurance and informed choices.

As much as we love to develop stories with direct and meaningful impact, it’s always important, if not vital, for our team at Oratales to embrace a decent splash of flat-out B-roll entertainment. Currently in development for stage and screen.

The search for love is a vicious journey. Previously in development as a series with a major studio in Hollywood, (which shall not be named, in case some other major studio challenges yet more anti-trust laws and buys them out) we have kept it on our shortlist, simply because the tale(s) are just so universally familiar, entertaining and poignant. Currently being developed as a television drama series.

The roots of this story are grown in the fertile muck of Chris and Rory’s youth, and their exposure – often literally – in the construction industry as much younger, healthier men. This passion project is currently in development for stage and screen.

No plot spoilers on this one. Probably just enough to add that this isn’t quite what some might describe as a biblical tale. It’s currently in development as a series for multiple formats.

What it says on the tin with this one. Chris is expanding the world of William, Scarlett, Katherine, Rosa, and the crew of the Maiden Bride.

Suffice to say the Dragon is anything but a dragon is the conventional use of the word. The hardest hitting and the hardest to write.

Bouncing back from darkness, with a pure romp of pleasure and fun from the swashbuckling players in the ongoing series.

Chris’ ongoing opus might just have a decent ending, if he ever lives long enough to write the bloody thing!

Rebecca must learn all there is to know about water and the politics of the underground hive arcology named the Operational Aqua-life Symbiosis of Infusion Survival. It is her only exit, and the only hope for the inhabitants of The Alley, who don’t take readily to dyin’ anyway.

Rebecca must use her wits, ingenuity, courage, and knowledge of water to unite the tribes of the Wastelands before the bloodshed of depravity destroys humanity entirely. It’s amazing how powerful the proper management of resources can be, when removed from the control of sociopaths and placed in the hands of empathic, nurturing peoples.
