My dirty little secret is that I’m also a writer of fiction and creative nonfiction. Some of this work exists online. Here, then, published writing by David Licata

Other Writing
I wrote “When Will You Make an End” for Talkhouse, about what it’s like to work on a film for 15 years.
I contributed a bunch of articles to Filmmaker Magazine, including an essay about the 7 Up films and an interview with Michael Apted.
I’ve written a few pieces for Submittable, including How to Finish Your Film, Chasing Portraits, an interview with filmmaker Elizabeth Rynecki, History and Horror Noir, interview with filmmaker Xavier Burgin, and Yes, Another Streaming Service, But This One You’ll Want to Subscribe to, interview with founding partner of OVID.tv and Vice President of First Run Features, Marc Mauceri.
I also wrote for Extracriticum.com, a blog about the performing arts written by performing artists.
And some other stuff that’s not on the web: Writer for SportsFigures (ESPN Television): “The Spin Doctor Is In” and “Ice Ain’t Easy” (featuring Olympic figure skater Sasha Cohen). An educational television series that explored a variety of math and physics concepts in the world of sports and used well-known athletes to help explain the relationships.

There’s more, but that will do for now.
