Anyone can give notes.
Your friend who watches a lot of TV can give notes. Your writer’s group can give notes. A coverage reader can give notes. Sometimes they’re even right.
But there’s a difference between notes and diagnosis. Between someone rewriting your script in their head and someone finding the exact place where your story lost its signal — and helping you fix it without losing your voice in the process.
Here’s the thing nobody tells you: right now, before anyone buys it, before the network has notes, before the showrunner puts their stamp on it — this script is entirely yours. That version matters. That version is what gets you in the room. That version is what you’ll defend in every meeting after.
So it better be firing on all cylinders. It better light you up inside. Because that deep feeling — that absolute conviction that this story is exactly what it needs to be — is what propels you forward. Into the pitch. Into the sale. Into the writers room. Into production.
Finding the fix that gets you there? Those are my drugs, man.

The Viewer Worksheet
Before you can fix the emotional signal in your own script, it helps to be able to spot it in someone else’s.
This free worksheet walks you through watching any show or film with fresh eyes — tracking where you’re fully engaged, where you start to drift, and where you lose the story entirely. It’s the same framework I use when I audit scripts, adapted for watching.
Use it on your favorite show. Use it on a terrible movie. Use it on the thing you’re writing so you can watch comparable stories with intention instead of just hoping the vibes transfer.
It’s free. It’s yours. And it might change how you watch television forever. (Spoiler: it will.)

The Story Conference
Stuck? Let’s get unstuck.
Whether you’re in the idea development phase, deep in an outline, or halfway through a rewrite that’s gone sideways — sometimes you just need someone to get in the room with you. Send me your material ahead of time so I come prepared, and we’ll spend 45 minutes on whatever you need: bouncing ideas, breaking story, finding stronger beats, dialing up the conflict, or just talking through the thing that’s been keeping you up at night.
Think of it as a writers room. Population us.

The Full Story Audit
You finished your script. Congratulations — genuinely, that’s not nothing.
Now comes the part where you figure out what’s working, what could be clearer, and where things feel a little wonky or unearned. And more importantly, how to fix it.
Here’s what I know after decades of close reading story: structure can be perfect and a script can still lie there. Because if your script doesn’t make people care, it doesn’t matter how well your midpoint lands or how clean your act breaks are.
You gotta trigger the give-a-shits.
That’s what the Full Story Audit is for. I’ll track the emotional signal of your script from page one — where it’s alive, where it starts to drift, where it loses the audience entirely — and give you a clear, specific roadmap for the rewrite that keeps your voice intact while making the story impossible to put down.
You’ll walk away with a written breakdown and one follow-up session to talk it through.

Also available: Proofreading! $100
Sometimes you just need a second set of eyes on the technical stuff. Spelling, grammar, punctuation, formatting… I notice everything (it’s a blessing and a curse). You can also add a proofreading pass to any service. Let me be your pedant!
