Be the Writer 

Writers Write About

 

 

Your writing needs to be vivid, sly, startling, sharp and revealing. Like I like my coffee. But talent alone won’t get you where you want to be. 

 

You need a system. One that motivates you and keeps you focused.  

 

StoryLab Pro offers monthly Writers' Rooms, Script Consulting, and Career Coaching led by a grizzled Industry Insider. Because all that wordsmithering(™) will only get you so far. It will not get you seen, read, or paid.

Why Aren't You Writing?

 

  • Do you always feel like you should be doing more?
  • Do you want to make more money with your god-given talent?
  • Do you want to finish the script, land the job or win over the client?
  • How strong are your habits and rituals?
  • How mentally and emotionally strong is that gorgeous brain of yours?
  • Have you taken endless courses, summits, masterclasses and challenges but still aren’t moving forward?

In my 30 years of experience, I've learned to not go it alone. Stop lone-wolfing it. You’re not a wolf. Unless you are and then this isn’t for you, but bravo on your tech skills.
