Les Zig

Les Zig is a novelist, screenwriter, and speaker.

He has four published novels: Just Another Week in Suburbia (Pantera Press 2017), explores the questions of trust, fidelity, and how well you can ever truly know another person; while August Falling (Pantera Press 2018) is a story about unconditional acceptance, reclaiming the past, and finding a way forward; and Prudence (ECG Press 2023), which is a exploration of fidelity, temptation, and our darkest desires. His newest novel, Any More Complicated Than That (ECG Press 2024), is a sexy but humorous polarization of the love triangle trope.

Les is also the writer and director behind the half-hour satire mockumentary Little Diva Rising (2019), which met with great success on the independent festival circuit; and the web series The Abnorms (2020), a preternatural take on life in lockdown during the pandemic. He also wrote and directed the short action film, The Other Side of Paradise (2021).

He’s had four screenplays optioned, and a raft of unproduced screenplays place in over one hundred competitions. His stories and articles have also been published extensively.

A lifetime writer, Les has a love of storytelling, and has always wanted to tell stories.
