I will write a logline and short pitch for your novel or screenplay
About this Gig
You've written the story. Now you need to sell it in one or two sentences.
A logline is the hardest sentence you'll ever write about your own work. You're too close to it, you know too much, and everything feels important. That's exactly why it helps to hand it to someone else.
I'm a published fantasy author with two ongoing series and a Substack on writing. I write pitches and back cover blurbs professionally, and I know what grabs readers' and agents' attention.
What you will get:
- 23 logline options (one sentence each) so you can choose the angle that feels right
- 1 short pitch (35 sentences) expanding on the strongest logline suitable for query letters, back cover copy, or social media
- A brief note explaining the choices I made and why
What I need from you:
- A short summary of your story (doesn't need to be polished)
- Your main character, their goal, and what's standing in their way
- Genre and intended audience
- Any existing pitch attempts, even if you hate them
Works for:
- Novels and novellas (any genre)
- Short story collections
- Screenplays and scripts
- Self-publishing blurbs and back cover copy

FAQ
What if I want an author bio?
That's what the question section is for. I'll gather some information from you to put into an author bio, which I will give 5 versions of for you to choose from.
What genre do you work best with?
I have a range of experience from nonfiction works--biographies, memoirs, true crime--to fiction--lit fic, spec fic, horror, romance, etc. There's really no genre I am not comfortable with!
What is a logline?
This is essentially your elevator pitch. It's a 1-2 sentence pitch of your story, and it's the hardest sentence(s) for an author to write. Many agents and publishing houses ask for this in their query prompts, and it's also helpful to memorize for in-person marketing events like book fairs.
