About this service

Summary

I know what it takes to complete a novel (and a screenplay). Both the external knowledge of story structure and character arc-ing and the internal fortitude that includes courage and dedication.
I have writer testimonies that I can provide. I love story structure and character growth and understand how they work together to tell a good story ... and keep readers engaged. I also assist writers with overcoming procrastination and discovering (or rediscovering) the love of writing (again).
"John Hruby is an alchemist in the truest sense of the word: someone who knows how to turn base metals into GOLD. Whatevr you struggle with as a writer - distractions, being blocked, lack of time, boredom, etc. - John will show you how to mine the powerful creative energy hidden within those experiences, extract it, and use it to supercharge your writing."
Toby Estlier, M.A., author, Running Home
"Space Spiders on Prom Day is a fast-paced romp of a story that communicates life-affirming messages in the midst of fun-filled gore and mayhem."
Dayna Dunbar, author, The Saints and Sinners of Okay County: A Novel
"Space Spiders on Prom Day was a joyful read from start to finish. I laughed out loud as often as I paused to soak up passages on life philosophy. I highly recommend this book to readers of all ages. Five starts on Amazon."
Jeffery Abend, guy who reads books

Process

I read your work (novel or screenplay)
I send you my story structure ebook. 60 pages.
You read it. You do the activities listed. You GET story structure.
If you're like most clients that I work with, you'll understand story structure in a deeper and more profound way. It will be powerful and empowering experience.
You'll be jazzed. Most writers I work with are even more excited to re-engage with their story. Ideas 'pop.' A-ha's happen, just by reading the ebook. Why? You'll most likely have an amazing understanding of how to arc a story with both plot and character development.
I send you notes on your story that include story structure (plot) and character development (story arc).
We schedule a 2 hr call.
We meet. Most likely on Zoom. You ask questions. We review everything together.
