  • Writing for Low to No budgets

  • Writing Your Story

  • Writing Female Led Films

Testimonials

I am relatively new to writing and Katherine’s Comprehensive Coverage of my script was outstanding. The way she breaks down your work and walks you through the areas where you can improve your story/dialogue etc. is incredibly helpful and gives you a clear map of what the future drafts of your project might be. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned writer, Katherine’s knowledge will be of great help to you. I highly recommend her services.
