If your project requires someone who can research deeply, analyze critically, investigate carefully, and communicate clearly, I'd be glad to contribute.

Writing is an Art, and it takes an artist to create it!
The art of weaving characters out of our imagination and making them real to the point of feeling what they feel is a pure form of ART!
I am a scriptwriter and novelist who predominately works on freelancing sites. Over the years, I have written for other sellers on Fiverr and Upwork. I decided to open my account to build myself as a brand.
I understand that I am relatively new on this platform. So, I will offer a free trial for a 200 words sample for books and a 3-page script sample for a screenplay. You need to know what you are buying!
Youโll get the same standard found on your television screen or the same found in your best books. After I complete your project, you will get a signed NDA with all rights belonging to you!
PROJECTS I HAVE WRITTEN (BOOKS AND SCRIPTS):

- CRIME AND GANG (All tropes, any race)
- CHILDREN BOOKS
- SATIRE
- HORROR, THRILLER, AND SUSPENSE
- FANTASY, ROMANCE, EROTICA...
- SCI-FI
I have written dozens of fictional stories and scripts, so over time I know the doโs and donโts of what sells and touches the soul.
So, do you have an idea, or maybe you started writing and got stuck? Why not let me help? I will turn your ideas into an award-winning short film, feature film, or the most intriguing book youโve ever read.
This is what you get:
- NDA (To protect your intellectual work, treat it with professionalism and care)
- Finished Stories/ Scripts in standardized formatted
- No recycled story. You will get a 100% original story

- I will create a framework and time frame that will work for both of us.
