Give your stories depth and resonance

There's a critical gap between writing good stories and writing stories that sell. While talent and passion matter, mastery of craft techniques can transform promising writers into working professionals.

Most writers plateau because they never learn the advanced storytelling methods that industry veterans use daily. These aren't tricks or formulas—they're proven tools that give your stories professional depth and emotional resonance.

That's why I created the Premium Story Guy Newsletter. As a professional screenwriting mentor and script consultant, I've identified 26 advanced techniques that can elevate okay stories into good, even outstanding ones. Over 26 weeks, you'll receive one powerful, actionable tip each week to take your writing to the next level and make your stories more compelling and marketable.

You’ll not only read a discussion of the writing idea but also be given practical ways --mostly in the form of questions -- to apply the tip to your own writing. Key to my screenwriting teaching is “Ask the right question, get the best answer!”

Each week you will receive advanced fiction writing tips such as:

--How to Create a Plot

--How to Create a Layered Character

--The Basic Principles of Action Line Style

--The Deepest Trait of a Heroine

--How to Motivate Yourself During a Long Writing Project

This exclusive 6-month program of 26 pro writing tips will be offered only once. Don’t let another year pass wondering why your stories aren't getting the reactions you need. Craft mastery is the game-changer.
