Creative Consulting Services
I truly believe everyone in this life IS and can be a writer. I believe everybody’s work has value. A lot of value. Sometimes all you need is a hand to guide you through the process and see things from another perspective. Basically, using my knowledge and education about scripting to imbue your ideas. Even the most talented writers need coaches and readers. It is an honor for me to help people achieve their goals to the highest standard.
My services can help you take a story, a thought, the tiniest kernel of an idea and build them into Lawrence of Arabia...The Graduate...The Devil Wears Prada (or fill in your favorite movie).
In working together, we can:
Brainstorm your ideas.
Take your story from idea to the page.
Analyze existing work and help elevate your project and ideas to their full potential.
I will help you create an overall and sound script structure, fully rounded and unique characters, a compelling story, and precision formatting.
Find the tone, pacing, and very importantly, theme of your work.
Help you to express your thoughts with clarity.
Discuss marketability.

Script Editing and Dialogue Polishes
Filmmaking is a collaborative art. Throughout my career I have specialized in script editing and dialogue polishes. While this aspect of my work typically goes under the radar, it’s some of the most gratifying writing I do. For whatever reason, I have cultivated a strong ability and ear for replicating authentic sounding speech. As with all my consulting work, I have a high respect for what has come before and try my best to keep the integrity of the original author’s words and meanings.
“Jaimie has been a lamplighter for my writing for over a decade. It is no exaggeration to say that any talent of mine in writing is a reflection of hers in editing and analysis. I would particularly commend her skill in recognizing the story I’m trying to tell and mapping out a way to it, through notes and suggested revisions, for the next draft. She is sensitive to language and to character in ways that have, more than once, revealed me to myself. This is true in multiple forms: scripts for the screen and theater; prose; even poetry. (For my sins, I write them all.) On a personal level, as an accomplished writer herself, familiar with the sometimes bleak, sometimes monotonous, nonetheless essential realities of everyday writing, Jaimie is a huge and constant inspiration.”
