There is nothing more powerful than a well-told story. Stories let us learn empathy, find escape, see reflections of ourselves, and experience the perspectives of others.
Whether you’re a seasoned writer or just starting out, I offer personalized consultations focused on what you want to say. I dive deep into your script and give thoughtful, honest feedback to help you tighten structure, strengthen characters, and sharpen dialogue. Together, we'll make sure your script hits home with your audience and will stand out to producers, financiers, or other buyers.
"So much of writing can be such a lonely activity, one where you sometimes get lost in whether or not what you're coming up with is good, bad, or if it even makes sense. Gabby provides not only an incredibly kind and comfortable atmosphere for giving notes, but she becomes a sort of lighthouse, guiding you to your final draft with clear and intentional thoughts that makes your solo endeavor feel like you have a teammate supporting you all along the way." - Aaron Izek (Writer, THE NEIGHBORHOOD)
Do you want professional, collaborative feedback on your pilot or feature script? I read your script and in a 1-hour collaborative working video session, I share my feedback from both a pure storytelling and industry-selling perspective. We discuss these notes, and after understanding your personal objectives and creative vision, work together to determine exactly what your script needs to take it to the next level.
Do you need feedback on a pitch presentation for a feature or television project? In a 1-hour video session, I hear your pitch (up to 30 minutes max) and give feedback from the perspective of a production company or buyer, and provide helpful notes on how to better organize or present your pitch.
Have an idea you’re excited about, but aren’t sure how to take it further? Whether you’re starting with a loose concept, a character, or short-form content, this session is designed to help you shape and expand your idea into a more fully realized project. Together, we’ll explore what makes your concept compelling and how it can evolve into a series, feature, or other long-form format.
Do you need a thorough read-through of your script for something other than story analysis? Depending on your specific needs, I proofread your script for grammar and spelling issues, and if you are not a native English speaker, I read with an eye for improving any unnatural sounding dialogue or exposition. Lastly, with my experience working in socially impactful storytelling, I can provide a sensitivity read, reviewing your script for unconscious bias, offensive language, and outdated/harmful stereotypes.
