A true professional, John recently provided coverage on one of my scripts, and I was blown away by not just his feed back, but his creative eye for my story. Rest assured if your writing project is dead in the water, this is where you want to go to bring it back to life. I am already looking into more services. Thank you again!!!

Some screenwriters just don't get it. John and his team get it. We were in synch and on the same page. I just wish I'd hired them first.
