Biography
DC Marlow
๐ Currently: Screenwriter ยท Flareflow
I’m a screenwriter and creative based in Los Angeles. I’ve been writing professionally since 2018, building across journalism, interactive fiction, and narrative design before settling into my focus: vertical short-form drama.
To date I’ve written seven produced screenplays โ all streaming on ShortMax and Vigloo, with an average IMDB rating of 7.4 across the slate. Crush on the Unwanted Princess holds an 8.0. Comeback of the Basketball King spans 68 episodes. I write fast, I write clean, and I know how to keep an audience watching episode after episode on a phone screen.
Before screenwriting took over, I spent several years as a freelance journalist โ including a stint as Associate Editor at The Daily Hodl covering crypto and blockchain, plus contributions to ScreenRant, BuzzFeed, and FanBuzz. That background shaped how I think about story: who the audience is, what they actually want, and how to get to the point.
Right now I’m writing vertical short-form micro-dramas for Flareflow, a global drama platform built around an AI-accelerated production pipeline that takes scripts from outline to screen using generative AI tools. Previously, I led creative marketing at Pocket FM โ CPI copywriting, AI video-generation systems, and Meta Ads Manager campaigns for one of the world’s largest audio and short-drama platforms. I’m selectively open to the right writing project โ particularly with studios or platforms producing vertical content at scale.
