Oh my gosh. Hey, everyone.

Hey, couldn't there be a credits rolling right now song, something to introduce us to the podcast? Why are we here, Carrie?

An ad maybe? I don't know. So we are here because I'm so excited. I'm jumpier than a virgin at a prison rodeo.

Because like Sophia and Rose peddling bacon lettuce and potato sandwiches, like Sophia wanting to sell water from the hose out back, and like Stanley's Bornaq becoming the king of potato openers, I too have just started my own business that is really more like a side hustle,

but I feel like a big bad boss lady when I call it my own business. I am taking my

decade of experience as a TV writer and I am offering to the other writers out there in the world script feedback services, career consultations.

I have workshops lined up on how to learn how to take your life stories and transform them into a killer pilot script and a TV show. So for you upcoming

writers out there, for you writers out there, you, anybody from, you know, the newest writer to

an experienced writer that needs a refresher, my services, it's called Breaking Story. I am here to help you have the most

solid script that you can have. Can I give a testimonial in the sort of like, you know, on those

lawyer commercials when they break away to the personal story of the person who wants to talk about

how that person got them a lot of money. And so money. Yes. Please tell everybody how much money. Okay. I have to come into the camera, though. If you're watching this, this is the commercial part where I tell my personal story. Okay. You know, I was lost. I had a story to tell. Well, I didn't really know how to tell it. Where does it start? Where does it end? What's in the middle? How do I structure it? I don't know. And then I went to, what's the website? Breaking Your Story.com.

And I found out that, wow, I can have help from an expert who can maybe teach me to not only write a great story, but maybe someday sell it to a big old studio.

Thanks, Carrie Dordy.

Oh, what a beautiful testimonial.

I love that.

Thank you for the kind words.

So I would love to read your script

out there, listener, whether it's your first draft, your 24th draft, as a wise and annoyingly

accurate writer once said, writing is rewriting. Some of my best work started off as a turd on a page

until I got some trusted feedback. So with your script, I can provide bigger foundational notes on the conciseness of things like

themes, stakes, obstacles, character wants versus needs, the use of supporting characters, all that stuff,
