What a hoot! And what an honor! Was thrilled to appear (for a second time) in a print issue of MovieMaker Magazine, offering some of my personal screenwriting dos -n- don'ts and how I pass along such rules to my script consulting clients. What a fabulous spread. Thank you to Tim Molloy and Deirdre McCarrick for the opportunity! Stay tuned, as the article will certainly be appearing in an online form in the near future!

 "I've felt a little burned by screenplay coverage sites in the past for their underwhelming, brief, and non-expert feedback... So I began to avoid services like this one. But I received a Klugula Screenplay Consulting package as a gift and now that I've experienced it once, I wouldn't hesitate for a second to book it again. It genuinely blew my mind. This is roughly 100x more engaged and in-depth than any other screenwriting service I've used. On a technical level, Michael Klug was able to help me quickly identify and fix bad formatting habits that I'd picked up over the years, and now every script I write is at a more professional level. Creatively, his attention to detail is second-to-none. He went through the script line-by-line and identified every loose plot thread or geographical inconsistency, highlighted any underthought character arcs and offered solutions, and he quickly understood and embraced the genre, influences, and references. In every way, his advice and feedback helped to cinch up my script into a polished, professional, saleable piece of work. I can not recommend him highly enough." Andrew Adams ~ Writer / Director
 Happy FIVE year anniversary to KLUGULA SCREENPLAY CONSULTING! So grateful to my clients, many of whom I can now proudly call "repeat customers"! Who'd-a-thunk it? This journey has been a pleasure, offering story insights, editing services and overall feedback on so many fabulous tales. Welp. I guess it's time to stock up on my red pen supply, as I prepare for the next five years! Thank you for the support, everyone!
 Sign o' the times! Times, they are a-changin'! Etc.
As the FIVE year anniversary for Klugula Screenplay Consulting inches closer (less than a month away), it's become clear that my low, low prices aren't quite enough to cover the amount of time, care and work I put into my clients' scripts. The point being, any newbie clients and of course, my beloved return clients -- now's the time to grab the current prices. As of June 13th, 2024, prices will indeed increase. Details to come as to new fees, once the date gets closer. I appreciate everyone's support and business over these past years. I hope our interactions and discussions have been fruitful. I know that they have been for me. Thank you! See you again on the big 5-YEAR with the news!  From Ari Grabb, filmmaker/animator: "Michael is a fantastic writer who knows how to meet you where you're at. He helped me find the kernels of truth in my story, which I wasn't even fully aware of. Just chatting with him about story is a fun, motivating use of your time. I'll be coming to him with future scripts for sure." Thanks for taking a shot on Klugula Screenplay Consulting, Ari! Looking forward to working together again! From one of last year's screenwriting WINNERS @ the 10th Anniversary season of FilmQuest, collecting on one of his prizes (coverage from KSC -- an Official Sponsor for FilmQuest). Here are a few words from writer/director, Kent Green:
"My short script needed a fresh pair of eyes and some useful guidance. I was too close to the material, and it was getting difficult to tell what was working and what wasn’t, as well as what was essential and what was superfluous. Michael read my script and gave me detailed notes that ranged from simple grammar fixes to questions and insights about the overall themes and atmosphere of the entire story. Besides the wonderful notes, we also had an hour-long phone call. He didn’t come off like he had the answer to everything in my script, more that he wanted me to. And if I didn’t, he’d take the time to tease out the question until I did. We explored some new ideas and possibilities that could help strengthen the storytelling, but he always allowed me to find my way to them, even if he was giving me clues and suggestions on how to get there." Thank you for the kind words, Kent! And best of luck as you continue your writing journey!  From Harker Jones, screenwriter and novelist. "Michael Klug does a deep dive, focusing line-by-line on typos, grammatical errors, thematic inconsistencies and character arcs. When you need an informed, insightful and objective eye on your screenplay, he’s the go-to guy!" Harker came to KSC via his 1ST PLACE WIN @ the 5th Annual We Make Movies Int'l Film Festival Short Screenplay Competition. One of the prizes for his win was a package from KSC! Thank you for the kind words, Harker! Happy writing!
