I write YouTube scripts that help you gain millions of views and improve your audience retention graph.
I have spent over 4 years writing scripts. Hence, I understand the stakes:
If your video loses viewers in the first few seconds, the algorithm drops it.
If your story drags or repeats, your retention drops, and so does your reach
If your hook doesn’t match your title, viewers bounce, and the algorithm notices.
That's why I write with clear narrative arcs, fast pacing, emotional hooks, and strategic callouts.
I am your guy if you're building or already have a channel dealing in:
✅ Movie Recaps
✅ Sport [tennis, NBA, Soccer, NFL] countdown/listicles, documentaries.....
✅ Cave diving
✅ Men’s Motivation/Personal Development
✅ Police Body Cam
✅ History & Crime
✅ Tech & Gadgets
✅ Business & Entrepreneurship
✅ Celebrity Gossip
I specialize in retention-driven scripts that combine deep research, engaging storytelling, and algorithm-friendly structure.
That is:
✅ Long-form documentary-style scripts (5–10 minutes, 20+ minutes, or 5K+ words)
✅ Short's hooks that grab attention in under 5 seconds
✅ Scripts that match your channel's voice, tone, and pacing
✅ Scripts optimized for watch time, viewer retention, and engagement
I've written for channels with thousands of subscribers and growing. My sports script for one tennis creator has passed 1 million views. Another script just crossed 500,000 views.
Here’s what one of my clients said:
“Richard is an amazing writer... easily one of the best writers I’ve worked with.” — Kye
Seriously, let me help you build a channel with scripts that earn trust, spark shares, and grow your audience consistently.
Send me a message. Let’s get your next video performing like your best one.

But guess what? Your channel can be an instant hit with the right words!
In the last couple of years, I've whipped up blog posts in various areas, with lifestyle being my signature jam.
As a natural-born storyteller and a whiz at YouTube scripting, I've got a knack for helping clients grow their ventures and carve out their online personas. I whip up captivating content that keeps your audience glued till the credits roll.
Here's what I'm awesome at:
-Crafting laid-back, chatty, and relatable scripts
-Thrilled about digging up juicy research gems
-Spinning original scripts that pack a punch
-Quick turnarounds and top-notch communication
-Whipping up SEO-friendly scripts

Hello there!
I'm an award-winning screenwriter and hands-on AI developer who helps creators, YouTubers, and businesses bring their visions to life — with compelling storytelling and smart automation.
I don't like to toot my own horn, but...
I've helped DOZENS of clients turn their scripts, novels, and YouTube channels into POWERFUL storytelling engines. My screenplay, The Art of Science, won ScreenCraft's Sci-Fi/Fantasy competition in 2020 (selected from 1,500+ entries), and my work has contributed to YouTube channels like MSA and UpFlip — amassing over 1 billion views across 300+ videos.
On the tech side, I use modern AI tools — including advanced prompting and agentic coding with Claude — to build custom solutions: automated content workflows, interactive storytelling apps, web tools, and more. If you can describe it, I can prototype and refine it quickly, without needing a full dev team.
Whether you need:
- Professional screenplay or story development
- AI-powered automation for your content or channel
- Interactive experiences that blend narrative and technology
...I'm ready to be your collaborative partner.
Ready to 'Mark' your words — or your whole workflow? Send me a message and let's make it happen.
(toot toot!)

Most YouTube scripts look fine on paper and fall apart the moment the video goes live.
You've probably seen it before. The hook isn't compelling enough. The pacing drags. Viewers drop off at 28 seconds and never come back because the script never gave them a reason to stay.
I know exactly what that drop-off looks like because I've studied it obsessively. I've watched hundreds of YouTube videos frame by frame just to understand why viewers leave at 28 seconds on one video but stay until the very end on another. That kind of research is baked into every script I write for you.
Over the course of 4 years, I have written 200+ scripts across history, finance, documentary, true crime, AI, luxury, celebrity, and health channels. I've built a process around one thing: keeping people watching.
Scripts I've written have helped channels reach
✅️317k+ views on breakthrough videos
✅️86k, 31k, and 30k views on brand-new channels are still finding their audience.
✅️Measurable spikes in Average View Duration (AVD) because the content is engineered for retention from line one
My process starts before a single word gets written. Using outlier research, I study top-performing videos in your niche to identify top-performing topics, search trends, audience retention patterns, successful storytelling patterns and keyword gaps.
I also perform SEO Keyword Research and Topic research with tools like VidIQ and TubeBuddy, and look for opportunities your competitors missed. Then, I use those insights to create an original script tailored to your channel and audience.
Your scripts will now be built around audience retention. That means opening with an irresistible hook, using pattern interrupt, creating curiosity loops that don't feel forced, increasing intensity and tension as the story progresses, and making every section flow seamlessly so your viewers dont get confused.
My goal is to make sure your watch time numbers are constantly increasing with every video. If you are posting once a week or every day, I will adapt to your workflow, your channel's voice, and your upload schedule so your content stays consistent and your audience stays loyal.
Every script comes proofread, plagiarism-free, SEO-optimised, and voiceover-ready.
If you're serious about growing your channel, send over your channel link, niche, and weekly workload, and let's build something your audience won't stop watching. I look forward to working with you.
I've written YouTube Scriptwriting projects across documentaries, true crime, history, technology, finance, lifestyle, Explainer Video content, educational channels and YouTube Automation brands. My background combines Creative Writing, Content Writing, Copywriting, Article Writing, Screenwriting, SEO Writing, Topic Research, Research & Strategy, Storytelling and Script Editing to produce scripts designed for both viewers and search engines.
