Helena Derett's guidance through my screenplay rewrite was invaluable. She has a sharp and practiced eye, and a gift for knowing what works, and how to accomplish it.
Robin F. Gainey
Published novelist / Optioned screenwriter
Helena was extremely helpful in elevating several scripts I have written. Her suggestions regarding conflict, plot, and dialogue were a lifesaver and she has been a part of helping my career as a producer and screenwriter advance in great ways.

The professionally written notes targeted all the strengths and the weaknesses in the script from structure to pacing, characters and dialogue. The comments gave me huge encouragement. Helped me take my script to the next level. Highly recommend!

I specialize in high-concept thrillers laced with adventure, sci-fi, horror, or supernatural elements. I love creating high-octane suspense and mystery that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
My writing has received "recommends" and has been praised by professional readers, including The Black List. My most recent TV pilot was called: "heart-stopping." (Afilmwriter)
I'm a graduate of the University of Miami with degrees in Motion Pictures Screenwriting and Creative Writing. I also have Masters in Screenwriting Certification through ScreenwritingU.
As a script reader and story consultant, I've worked for production companies in Los Angeles and London, and optioned/produced screenwriters, and published authors.
Contact me for any writing or coverage samples. I offer a fast, reliable turnaround with an eye toward marketability and getting scripts production-ready.
