Hannah F – Editor

Greetings! Let's talk story and find a way to elevate your latest draft.

As a story analyst from LA with a Master of Fine Arts degree, I have 9+ years of experience providing assessments on both novels and screenplays, and would be delighted to support your story too. If you're looking for someone to review larger-picture story elements like the clarity of world-building, plot, structure, tone consistency, character development, dialogue, pacing, then you've come to the right place!

My work experience with Amazon's Literary Acquisitions team means I can also share ideas on how your novel might be more attractive to potential buyers for adaptation to the screen.

Here are recent performance reviews:

- "You put the clients completely at ease, your suggestions are helpful, original, and grounded in craft knowledge as well as creativity. ... You also have excellent diplomacy." -- Daniela Saioni, International Script Supervisor and Screenwriter

- "Hannah has been an incredibly helpful asset to our team... She provides thorough analysis of scripts and offers thoughtful, constructive and insightful feedback while still remaining positive in her approach. She has proven herself willing to go above and beyond expectations." -- Steven DeBose, Script Competitions Director at the Austin Film Festival

For editorial assessments, I provide the following to clients:

A) 30 minutes initial video interview to go over the client's writing experience, influences, and intentions for the piece.

B) A constructive report on your piece, detailing areas for improvement and possible solutions.

C) 1 hour follow up video consultation to go over the notes, answer any questions, and brainstorm additional solutions to elevate the piece.

D) A recording of the 1 hour consultation.

While I routinely read fiction and nonfiction, my favorite genres are fantasy (particularly magical realism and ancient mythology), historical narratives, as well as anything that speaks to environmental issues (i.e., eco-literature). Sub-genres welcome! Growing up I frittered away the hours with Tamora Pierce books and the golden-edged pages of The Royal Diaries series. Now as an adult, I spend my free time consuming Shakespeare and tales immersed in the 1930s/40s aesthetic, à la The Boys in the Boat.
