What to Expect
It's important for every writer to have a solid script AND to show executives that they are collaborative and professional to work with. Limited to only 5 writers, these 2-week Rewrite Clinics are designed to give writers an opportunity to develop a solid script and collaborate with an industry professional.
The executive will read your script and meet with you one-on-one for 25 minutes. You'll receive notes from your executive, get to know them, and let them get to know you!
Then you will have a week between sessions to revise your pages and in the second roundtable, you'll have another 25-minute meeting to talk about the submitted revisions.
Joining Sessions
Rewrite Clinics meet online via virtual classroom utilizing video conferencing software ZOOM.

Character, character, character. Who is this person and why should I care? If I don't immediately know a positive, negative and dream characteristic about this protagonist, then I'm not going to be interested on their journey.
However, that being said, the main thing that I often tell clients is: What and where is the story? Don't waffle - I should be able to pick out ~where~ the story is and where it's going: that's all the matters!
Particularly interested in female-centered and Asian-American centered stories!
Through my company, I am not at liberty to produce unsolicited scripts without going through an agent, but I am more than happy to give you script and producer notes and help you with career tips and how to get signed by an agent!
