Finished a draft of your magnum opus? Looking for big picture, developmental edits? Or nitty gritty line-editing? Or maybe a reader’s report? Be it a novel, novella, short-story screenplay or pilot, I can help you polish it, getting it ready for querying, competition-ing, or indy-publishing. I’ll make sure your characters are consistent, motivations clear, plot holes filled, with pacing that keeps a reader hooked.
I am a writer myself. I’ve worked with editors, producers, actors and directors. I know what it’s like to be in your shoes. To put yourself out there. How vulnerable it is. How lonely and disheartening. That’s why I want you to think of me as coach and cheerleader equally. Someone that’s there to push you to dig deep, that knows your strengths, that gets the best out of you, while at the same time picking you up after a comment from a reader, or a form rejection, or just a bad writing day.
Whatever it is, I’m in your corner.
In 2008 I graduated from Vancouver Film School for writing, and since have developed and produced screenplays and pilots with Writ Large, Campfire prod, 3Arts, Ravenwest, Clone Wolf, Keystone Pictures, and Muse Entertainment. And have letters of reference upon request.
RATES:
For developmental and line edits: $.005/word. This will include at least 3 pages, detailing where I think the story could use work. One page for plot, one for character and one for world building. Also included are zoom chats before and after the edit. I especially enjoy a Zoom before an edit, so I can get to know you, and understand what your vision is for your creation. I know we writers can be shy, so if you’d rather not chat over the web, I understand!
For a 3 page reader report on your manuscript: $200. One page each for plot, character and world building, where I will detail what is working and what could use more development. Included is a zoom call before and after (if you so desire).
For a 3 page report on your screenplay: $100. One page each for plot, character and world building, where I will detail what is working and what could use more development. Included is a zoom call before and after (if you so desire) so we can brainstorm and I can understand your vision for the project.
For a 3 page report on your pilot: $50. One page each for plot, character and world building, where I will detail what is working and what could use more development. Included is a zoom call before and after (if you so desire) so we can brainstorm and I can understand your vision for the project.
Please, drop me a line:
I offer a free 15-minute Zoom consultation, and a first 1500 words sample edit. Look forward to helping you realize your vision😊
