Hello Fellow Screenwriters, With all the shutdowns nationwide, I suddenly have nothing to do. I am an Emmy nominated, award winning screenwriter with film and tv writing credits. I have taught screenwriting at various institutions of higher learning and have written scripts for some of the biggest names in Hollywood. Okay now that I have completely stepped out of my comfort zone touting my accolades I am offering my script doctor services for local screenwriters looking to tighten up their scripts or just get an experienced set of eyes on them. And since I am basically out of work like so many others, until further notice, I am coming to you dirt cheap. If you have a script you want me to look at you can reach out to me at handeprod(a)gmail.com Keep writing and keep washing your hands. Eric Swinderman Anhedonia Pictures
