Services
Concept-to-Completion
My Concept-to-Completion mentoring services
are a bridge enabling writers at any stage of their craft to cross
over to themselves, to their imagination, to the books, screenplays,
stories and poems awaiting their arrival. The service includes brainstorming,
concept origination, structural development, plot development and
on through to a submission-ready screenplay or prose manuscript.
Screenplay Analysis, Adaptation and Reread
Committed to helping screenwriters transform their experience, lived or imagined,
into aesthetically and professionally realized screenplays, I work
at all levels of the screenplay process, from theme inception through
the transformational process of three-act structure and character
analysis while focusing on such dramatic aspects as the role of
minor characters, the importance of individualized dialogue, and
the creative freedom attendant within the responsibility of form.
Additionally, I can follow through with assistance on invaluable
submission tactics including Pitch, Log-line, Synopsis,
Query Letter and Treatment.
Prose Manuscript Evaluation
I offer comprehensive manuscript
evaluation for fiction and non-fiction alike. Whether
for writers wanting to tell their “story of stories,”
or for those who sense something static or missing inside their
work, I provide specific and effective evaluations at all stages
of the process. I am particularly interested in working with writers
struggling to transform the language of self into the self of language.
Ghostwriting
It may well be true that each of us contains
an unwritten book. The challenge is to get it out in the world.
I have worked with individuals who wish to “write their story”
without having the time or desire to actually write it. Through
ghostwriting, I am able to be the catalyst for a completed Memoir,
Novel or other work. A recent example: I encountered a
man who was dissipating his unique experiences through anecdotes
dispensed to listeners. I showed him how to transform his talent
as a raconteur into a book that could reach thousands of readers.
The book has since been published and he is now moving on to narrating
his next book through my spectral presence.
