Story Consulting

The idea with story consulting is to get strategic input at a particular stage of your story development process. This can be an initial logline and synopsis, a 4-page treatment – or even a first draft of a fully fleshed-out manuscript. Wherever you are in the creative process, I’m ready to help you clarify your ideas and get your story heading in the right direction…

Having said that, I would encourage you to start pitching your story to individuals and engaging in creative dialogue sooner rather than later (yes, I’m afraid, the earlier the better). Some of the most valuable discussion and feedback you can get as a writer is at the point of ‘conception’ rather than at the first draft. So much value is already discernible in the originating ‘premise’. Conversely, one can go wildly off track if your basic story idea isn’t distilled to an essence upfront.

Contact me by email to find about how a creative conversation could work for you. We’ll schedule an initial consultation to discuss the story – before this, I will have read your document and made written comments which will have been sent to you …
