Don Chuy reading a screenplay with a red pen

Improve my script

THE TOOL SHED

This is one door with six benches behind it. Pick the bench that matches what you are fixing today. Nothing here replaces the full 300-point read — these are the quick passes you make between drafts.

Each bench solves one specific writing problem. You do not need to use them in order: choose the problem in front of you, read that bench's short description, and start there.

Logline Lab: One sentence decides whether anyone asks for pages. Grade the logline, the synopsis, a single scene or a character — all free.
First Five Pages: Your opening pages, graded the way a real reader reads them: keep going, or pass. Free, no card.
Punch-Up Room: Hand Don Chuy one scene and pick a pass — sharpen, alt dialogue, tighten, tone, tension or subtext — and he hands it back with notes.
Breakdown Board: Production notes that outlive the rewrite — tag pages for cast, locations, props, VFX and stunts, and keep them when the next draft lands.
Compare Drafts: Two finished assessments, all fifteen categories lined up, so the rewrite shows its work.
Template Vault: Every template, free: logline builder, beat sheet, treatment, character doc, pitch deck, query letter and downloadable docs.

Try one today: choose a bench below and bring the piece of your draft you want to improve.
