Due to the overwhelming demand of the 4-Month Mentorship service, I’m now offering a Mini-Mentorship, which is much like the regular mentorship listed above, but we only do ONE notes call a month, 5 calls total. You get 5 notes calls for less than the price of 3. We will still set goals, decide what project(s) to work on, set deadlines to work towards, and discuss career next steps. For writers who want to work on 1 project that may need a few drafts, or for writers that want to get notes on multiple projects and go through the development process but don’t have the time to do the full mentorship program, this is for you! Payment cannot be split into two. If interested, please email me to set up an Introductory Call first! Only 4 Spots Available.

Notes include comprehensive and constructive comments on your story, structure, concept, characters, dialogue, tone, etc., plus specific concrete suggestions on how to improve them and bring out the most commercial aspects of your story and concept. Does not include synopsis.

Includes 2 pg synopsis. Notes include specific and comprehensive suggestions on how to improve overall writing, story, structure, a breakdown of all major characters, pacing, stakes, climax and resolution, specific problem scenes, tone, specific dialogue notes and formatting issues, plus overall commercial potential and marketing ideas.

Once we’ve done notes on your script, you can submit any subsequent drafts (within one year) for less! It’s the same as the Basic Notes Service but I’ll go through all the changes you made that worked and what areas still need to be worked on. Also includes new grading sheet. (Price is $250 for second drafts of TV Pilots)

Submit your script and we’ll discuss my in-depth notes on the phone for up to 2 hours! We will go through page-by-page all the specific notes necessary to make your script shine. Service does not include written notes. Turnaround is quicker than written notes.

8-10 pages of detailed notes including a 1-2 page synopsis, major character breakdowns, commercial potential analysis, and specific dialogue notes. Plus, we’ll discuss the notes, suggestions or changes by phone or Skype for an hour. That’s a savings of $50!

Notes will discuss all essential elements (as listed above) plus overall series viability, scope, voice and vision. Does not include synopsis. You can choose written or phone notes.

For book writers wondering if your manuscript or novel is ready for agents and publishers, if it could make for a great film or TV series, or how to adapt your story into a screenplay. I will read your book/manuscript and we’ll have an in-depth phone conversation going over your story, plot, characters, dialogue, pacing, what works in each chapter, if it could be a movie and how to get it there. Please note – this is NOT a book editing service. Price listed is for manuscripts 275 pages or less (about 70,000 words). Please email me first if over 275 pages.

4 Months of In-Depth Phone Notes, Brainstorming Consults and Career Coaching.  This is a personalized, customized development process  where we set specific goals, deadlines, do notes calls every 2 weeks (each call is about 2 hrs) and we can cover any scripts, pilots, treatments, query letters, etc. This does NOT include books or manuscripts. This is NOT for first time writers or first scripts, you must have more than one completed script to register. If interested, please message me to schedule an Introductory Call before purchasing.
