Hallo,
I would like to meet you and be of assistance. Distance will be a problem but maybe you can consider Skype as an alternative.
Contact with you and frequent communication will be vital particularly at the beginning. The writer needs to know what you have in mind , what is the story in the story.
I am a writer. My debut drama written in 2008 was awarded the prestigious SANLAM prize in our country.
We need to sit down and develop a framework, divide it into chapters and then add the "meat" to the bones until you are satisfied. This is your story...joy, pain, success, conflict, tears, challenges, what kept you going, your dreams, lessons and peace.
When you write a story there are no short cuts, quick fixes or a take away service. It is planning, coordinating and creating something special.
Please contact me if you need more info.
