 It’s been a while since our last newsletter, but we’re thrilled to be back in your inbox! A lot has happened, and we can’t wait to share some exciting updates, news, and stories with you. As you know, Ben's books were written when he was still in primary school. Since Ben's last book - his sci-fi fiction '2020' - published in 2019, Ben started high school here in New Zealand and decided to take a film-making course as part of his Year 9 studies. As an avid writer and storyteller, it didn't take long for Ben to also develop a passion for film-making. Ben began writing scripts, directing, producing, and even acting in his own films. Ben has been involved in dozens of films since then and has now started his Bachelor of Screen Arts at Massey University in Wellington, New Zealand. We are certain that Ben's readers will also fall in love with his movies. Packed with action, humour, and Ben's signature fast-paced narrative, his films are just as captivating as his books! Ben's movies though, cater to an older audience, aimed at pre-teens and teenagers, making them more suitable for ages 13 and up, unlike some of his books, which are designed for younger children. Here are some of Ben's films you might like to watch (Click on the pictures below) 40 HOUR FAIL Four friends decide to self-document their experience taking on the “40-Hour Famine” challenge, but their plan quickly unravels as unexpected challenges test their endurance, friendships, and even their sense of humor. With each hour feeling longer than the last, they’re pushed to their limits in ways they never imagined. Will they survive the challenge together, or will it drive them apart?
