Longtime Nashville journalist Carrington Fox stepped away from the all-you-can-eat buffet of reviewing restaurants to draft her first feature-length comedy screenplay, Sexy Chapter, which is currently a semifinalist in the Nashville Film Fest screenwriting competition.
Sexy Chapter logline:
With AI reshaping the publishing industry, a struggling and studious author must decide how far she’ll go, risking her reputation and relationships, to save a book deal and her creative career.
About Carrington Fox
In 2010 Carrington Fox was named the top food writer by the Association of Alternative Newsweeklies for her column in the Nashville Scene. Her work has appeared in Southern Living, Food Network, Dr. Oz The Good Life, Culture, and NFocus magazines; Creative Loafing Charlotte; Louisville’s LEO Weekly; Esquire.com; Chapter16.org; MasonDixonKnitting.com; and The Tennessean. She has appeared on Throwdown! With Bobby Flay and been a guest on Martha Stewart’s radio program. Carrington addresses civic groups, garden and book clubs, and writing workshops.
In 2016, Carrington enrolled in her local technical college. She journaled the experience as a middle-aged mom in construction school at BuildingUpButtercup, for which she was named the 2018 Outstanding Technical Student of the Year in Tennessee (and won a car). She is currently working on a feature-length comedy script based on that career pivot and educational experience.
Carrington is a graduate of Princeton University and holds an MBA from Vanderbilt University. She lives in Nashville with her husband David, three college-age sons, a micro-flock of backyard hens, and a shiftless but endearing Havanese terrier.
