Fiction Clients (Literature and Screenplays)

“We’ve worked with a LOT of writers over the years, but this has been hands down one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. Massively over-delivered on the final manuscript. Extreme communication at every step of the way … He took a “so-so” story idea and really made it shine. Highly recommended if you need a stellar creative writer to fine-tune your story, idea, or manuscript!”
— TC, author, screenwriter

“Chip was an absolute joy to work with. Phenomenal writer and highly professional!”

I have a long road ahead and the draft is extremely rough, but he not only took the time to read through all 70k+ words and make notes along the way, he also included a summary page with loads of comments and questions which is exactly what I was looking for. He is a genuine professional. You’ll be in good hands if you choose him to help with your project.”

I cannot begin to express how grateful I am for this considered and thorough reading. Back to the drawing board – with a much better sense of what to do now that I have your insights!!”
— M. Goff, Poet, Screenwriter

“Chip is a damn good script reader because he’s a damn good script writer. He takes his kid gloves off and delivers honest, on point and actionable notes.
