Later Work
After Ross had finished with his work as an advisor to the scriptwriters for the film Breaker Morant, his services were commissioned on numerous occasions by interested parties in Australia and the United States to write film treatments on their behalf; however, quite a few of these otherwise promising potential projects did not proceed due to the effects of the 2008–2012 global financial crisis on the film industry and its backers.
He wrote several scripts for episodes of the Australian television shows Carson's Law, and Rafferty's Rules.
He has also fully developed several other film scripts that have been purchased, but have not yet begun production; and, also, one of his fully developed film scripts (working title Sunburnt Heroes) is in pre-production.
He has also mentored several promising emerging writers, and has completed a manual for writers that is soon to be published.
He has completed a novel, a spy thriller, To Skin a Cat, which has been placed with a publisher; and as well, has returned to the stage, writing an entirely new play (working title L,V AND P), concerning Laurence Olivier, Vivien Leigh, and Peter Finch.
For a number of years he was the South Australian representative of the Australian Writers' Guild

“There is work together
A Church for all
And a job for each
Every man to his work.”
