Choosing Comp Titles (it's an art!)

July 03, 2026 6:15am 42 min

What's the key to choosing comp (comparative) titles that pique an agent's curiosity? Should you use films or tv shows? What about huge bestsellers — would those make good comps, and if so, in which circumstances? In tod...

Birds of Prey: writing unlikeable characters

July 01, 2026 9:30am 29 min

How do you create an emotional connection between a reader and an unlikeable character? That's one of the most common questions we get as editors. The answer lies in understanding the anti-hero protagonist and Birds of P...

Ronin: what is an antihero?

June 24, 2026 2:30am 28 min

Nothing is what it seems in this mercenary mystery. I discovered a way to use two premises to create mystery and a twist - a great find for everyone writing mysteries or spy stories. Valerie works out what type of protag...

Identifying Genre is Trickier than You Think!

June 19, 2026 7:45am 37 min

What kind of story are you writing? That question is actually much trickier to answer than it seems, and that's because writers and agents look at genre differently. What happens if, after reading the query letter, an ag...

Hidden Figures: your reader's expectations?

June 17, 2026 2:30am 25 min

Well, well, well ... this has to be THE most interesting presentation of an underdog protagonist that I've ever come across. Not only have the filmmakers gone above and beyond with respect to their audience's expectation...

Notting Hill: why we love it

June 10, 2026 2:30am 23 min

This week I practised writing a premise for each of the characters in Notting Hill and I experimented with the ending to see if this tool helps writers evaluate writing ideas. Valerie studied the value of the “everyman” ...

Is this a mystery?

June 05, 2026 9:20am 43 min

What happens when a story is pitched in the query letter as a mystery, but doesn't read like one in the opening pages? Where did the confusion creep in and how can you avoid a genre mismatch? We discuss this and much mor...

Mrs.Harris Goes to Paris: toothless antagonists

June 03, 2026 2:30am 41 min

Of all the types of protagonists, audiences/readers love the underdog the most, and our discussion of this beloved archetype led us down all kinds of interesting story theory roads including tension, stakes, objects of d...

Sicario: not what we expected

May 27, 2026 2:30am 38 min

Sicario presented us with a few surprises this week. Valerie thought she’d be analysing a hero, but Kate is an underdog. She’s not presented as a typical underdog, nor does she have the typical underdog resolution. On my...

Killer Opening Lines

May 22, 2026 2:30am 48 min

Can you write a killer opening line? Can you define what a killer opening line is? In this week's episode, we give our professional advice on the opening pages of a story described as upmarket with suspense elements, sta...

Murder She Said: sex or murder?

May 20, 2026 6:10am 32 min

What type of protagonist does your story feature? There are 4 types, each of them can be a constant character or a change character, and each one evokes a different emotion from your reader/viewer. And that's exactly wha...

What Went Right: anora

May 13, 2026 2:30am 28 min

Poles apart - and not the dancing kind! Anora won the 2024 Palme d’Or at Cannes and five out of six categories at the 2025 Academy awards including Best Original Screen Play and Best Film. Plus, it was nominated for a mu...

The best time to send a query

May 08, 2026 2:30am 29 min

It's AMA time! When is the best time to query an agent? When is the best time to go out on submission? How on earth does a writer choose comp titles? Literary agent, Kathleen Foxx, answers these questions and more on tod...

What Went Wrong: 80 for Brady

May 06, 2026 6:35am 48 min

I'm convinced that the screenplay for this film was generated by AI. Of course, I have no proof for that, but 80 for Brady is so completely bizarre that if AI wasn't involved, I'd like to know what the filmmakers were sm...

Best Advice: heroes and villains

April 29, 2026 2:30am 19 min

In the season roundup, we share all our best advice about the speech in praise of the villain (what it is, how to craft it, and why it's important), and constant characters (they're waaaaaay more common than you think!)....

AI in Writing and Publishing

We have news! And it benefits you.

April 23, 2026 2:30am 1 min

What if you could get professional advice on your query letter and first ten pages writing sample BEFORE you started to send it off to agents? Well my friends, you're going to love this! Starting tomorrow, literary agent...

Thunderbolts: 2 surprising twists

April 22, 2026 8:00am 44 min

In a twist that no one saw coming, not even us, the villains in this movie are Val and Mel!  Despite this, I thought Thunderbolts would be better. :( However, the constant characters in this movie support a protagonist w...

Men In Black (archive)

April 15, 2026 2:30am 38 min

Season 5 kicks off with Men in Black. Valerie is studying plot structure, and Melanie is studying resonance. Now, admittedly, plot structure doesn't sound very sexy but it's one of the first decisions a writer must make....

The Devil Wears Prada (archive)

April 08, 2026 2:30am 30 min

Sometimes, studying a story that you love can be a bit scary. What if it turns out that the story is rubbish, and what you really like is the soundtrack, or the actor, or the costumes? Well, you can cast those worries as...
