Have you always wanted to write a screenplay but don’t know where to start?
Are you a beginner or emerging screenwriter who’s looking for inspiration, guidance and support?
Do you already write fiction or prose – and now want to add screenwriting to your creative goals?
I wrote the spec script that launched my career – the romantic comedy-drama Fado! – around my day job (and it was only the second screenplay I’d ever written). I’m now a professional screenwriter with six feature films currently in development.
As someone who finally decided to follow her creative dreams – and made them happen! – I love encouraging and supporting others to do the same.
That’s why I now offer bespoke, one-to-one mentoring programs for beginner and emerging screenwriters.
I understand the joy and fulfilment writing brings… but also the problems we run up against, both on and off the page. I know how it feels to have creative dreams and ambitions – to know you’re made to achieve something bigger and truer to who you are – but no clue how to get there. I know what it’s like to write around a day job, while having caring responsibilities, and after serious illness. I know the work it takes to get a script to industry standard – and what it takes to find your writing ‘voice’.
I bring all this experience, empathy and insight to my mentoring work – being an encouraging ‘critical friend’ and sounding board for you on your screenwriting journey.
What I offer as a mentor
- A bespoke mentoring program that we create together – based on what you’re at right now with your writing and what you want to achieve
- 10 x one-to-one, hour-long sessions together – over a timeframe to suit you (max. 6 months)
- Practical guidance in the craft of screenwriting, including my eyes on your work
- Advice, strategies, resources and inspiration to help you smash through creative blocks
- Accountability to help you set deadlines and goals… and hit them!
- Email support 9-5 Monday-Thursday between our sessions
