M. Elizabeth Eller, or MLiz, is an award-winning Austin-based writer-director who recently relocated after a decade in Los Angeles. Her independent web series, Manic Pixie Dream Wife, toured internationally on the festival circuit, earning series and writing accolades from organizations including SIFF and Raindance. Her drama pilot Third Party won the ISA Fast Track Fellowship, landing her on the ISA’s 25 Screenwriters to Watch list.
MLiz began her creative career in Seattle’s theater scene, where she wrote, directed, and designed for the stage. That theatrical foundation continues to influence her work - now reimagined for the screen - through layered character dynamics, heightened emotional worlds, and a touch of magical realism. Eller’s work often explores social systems through a deeply human lens, with a focus on relationship-driven dramedies that shine a light in the darkness.
