01 Every kind of story

Noir. Space. Comedy. Whatever keeps you up at night.

Two people who should not work, and the whole world conspiring to prove it. Write the wind, the coat, the laugh that decides everything. The reader knows how it ends and turns the page anyway.

Romance01 The Last Crossing

Change one law of the world and follow it to the end. A ship with sixteen hours of air, a voice in the logs that knows her name. The future is only a question asked properly.

Science fiction02 Signal, Sixteen Hours

Someone is lying, and the reader gets to find out before the detective does. Write the city at night, the alibi that almost holds, and the one detail nobody should have noticed.

Crime03 The Salamander Protocol

The clock is running and she has what they want. Every chapter takes something from her. Write the rooftop, the searchlight, the door that will not open, and never let the reader breathe.

Thriller04 Level Minus Two

Build a world whose rules hold, then put a sword in the ice and ask who is worthy. Kingdoms, oaths, the price of magic. The map is yours to draw.

Fantasy05 The Sword in the Lake

Something in the field is taller than it was yesterday. Dread is a slow instrument. Write the torch beam, the listening, and the thing you show only once.

Horror06 What the Field Keeps

A letter on a kitchen table and two people who cannot open it. No chase, no dragon. Just a life, told so truly the reader recognises their own.

Literary07 The Unopened Letter

A young queen at a window, snow on the glass, and a council who think they decide. Put the reader in the room. Make the past a place they have lived.

Historical08 The Queen's Window

The bridge sways and the temple waits behind the falls. Movement is the engine. Write the map that lies, the guide who knows more than he says, and the thing at the end that was worth it.

Adventure09 The Temple Behind the Falls

A river at dusk, a rifle across her lap, and a code that costs more than it pays. The frontier tests everyone. Write the landscape as scripture and the choice as the whole plot.

Western10 Crossing at Dusk

The best man has lost the ring and found the microphone. Timing is craft. Write the room where everything goes wrong at once, and everyone you love is in it.

Comedy11 The Best Man's Speech

A whale over the rooftops and a girl who is the only one not afraid. Ask what if, and mean it. The strangest idea you have is the one to write.

Speculative12 The Day the Whale Came
02 Real books ours, kept

Beautiful books. Yours. Finished.

Not a draft in a text box. A typeset novel with a cover, a spine and a colophon, exported for print and for every reader, the day the story is done.

01 The craft

The craft

A story is grown, not generated. Nine stages, each settled before the next, and each one able to see every decision made before it.

One line is enough. A name, a place, a wrong that needs righting. The engine asks what it needs to know and nothing more, and the story begins.

The casinoScene 0001 of 0003
02 The cast walk

The cast stays themselves.

The casino. The black dress.

Most tools give you a different face every time you ask. Here she is drawn once, in the round, and every scene is made from that one sheet. Scroll; she walks.

02 The cast walk

Same woman. New rain.

The quay. The trench coat.

A different night, a different coat, the same face. The sheet holds her build, her colouring, the way she walks, so she is recognisably her in any weather.

02 The cast walk

Same woman. New job.

The car park. The night blacks.

Every picture of her, in every scene and costume, comes from the same sheet. Change the room, change the clothes, and she is still, unmistakably, her.

03 Every form

One story. Every form you can sell it in.

Write it once. The novel, the screenplay, the audiobook and the artwork stay in step because they come from one source. Change a scene and every form follows.

Flash fiction to saga. Typeset with a cover, a spine and a colophon, for print and every reader.

The book01 Every form

Short film, feature, pilot, episode. Proper format from the same outline, made for pitching and shooting.

The screenplay02 Every form

The script realised: storyboards, shots, continuity held, the whole thing cut and finished.

The film03 Every form

A show that holds its seasons and its episodes, every one remembering the last.

The series04 Every form

The same words, performed. A cast, a voice for each character and one for the narration.

The audiobook05 Every form
04 Finished, and provable design

Not a draft in a text box. A book, still warm.

Every decision, draft and image is written to a tamper-evident record as it happens. When you publish, a certificate of authorship goes with the work, checkable by anyone, anywhere.

06 Provenance ours, kept

Every word is yours, and you can prove it.

Each decision, each draft and each image is written into a chain that cannot be edited after the fact. When you publish, you can show exactly what you decided, what the engine did, and when.

05 Questions

The things people ask before they press the button.

Yes. Every decision, draft and image is written into a tamper-evident record as it happens, and a certificate of authorship built on open standards goes with the work when you publish.

No. A story is grown in stages: seed, foundations, cast and places, outline, prose, every form. Each stage is settled with you before the next begins, and nothing downstream is regenerated without your say.

Yes. Every character carries one sheet, and every image, poster and storyboard frame is drawn from it, so they are recognisably the same person in every scene and costume.

A monthly fee for the studio, and then a price per finished thing you make, so the cost is known before the button is pressed.

At any stage. Go back, change a decision, and choose what flows downstream. Everything you have approved is kept.

07 Pricing

A subscription, plus what you make.

A monthly plan opens the studio and includes credits. Everything you make is priced in credits per finished output and quoted before it runs, so the cost is known before the button is pressed. Plans and prices are being finalised.
