Scriptwriting Coaching

I specialise in helping new, and established, writers achieve their goals in the most joyful way possible. I also have a knowledge and passion about supporting writers through their doubts, as well as those facing the challenges of ADHD.

This is for you if you’re looking to:

  • Develop a new idea.

  • Set writing goals and find your ideal “ways of working” to reach them.

  • Get feedback and notes as you write a treatment.

  • Get script notes on completed drafts of a script.

  • Understand the industry and have accountability for “what to do next” once you’ve written your script.
