"By the time I was 4, I had finished reading 384 (we counted them!) Monica's Gang comics acumulated from decades of having older brothers. My parents couldn't believe they had to buy more... Now, after finding success in Digital Marketing as a copywriter for almost a decade and deciding to "retire", I'm looking to follow my childhood passion as a pure creative writer. Doesn't matter the format, I love working with good stories." - Douglas Pelegrini
If my background as a consultant taught me one thing, it is that every business is different. The story you want to tell is also unique and demands personalized attention. From simple proofreading to editorial work that respects your creative and business reality, together we can take your story to the next level.
So here is how I can help you with my services.
Fiction and fantasy is my jam. I plan to die of old age before I stop working with stories.
Good stories are not always required for video games, but when your game depends on narrative, it needs enough craft to avoid feeling lazy. I can help you build worldbuilding that enhances the plot instead of existing for vanity, wasting your money and the player's time. Together, we can shape remarkable characters and make your game feel alive.
I can edit to the word, phrase or entire volume level. Let me fix the pacing, dialogue, character arcs, plot or write the story for you. Your lead, my lead or combined efforts. Your call.
Let's create award-winning Manga togheter. Let me help you with your 16-60 pages one-shot or pilot so you can land your Henshūsha and send your work for Mochikomi, increasing your chances of becoming a professional Mangaka. I will do panel-by-panel dialogue, add hooks in the end of the page and polish your story.
