I have not taken a single class by Max, where I have not learned more about the story and the power it has to create new worlds. Mastering the Story Momentum allowed me to focus on making sure my stories have flow to them instead of aimlessly wondering about. Great class with fun engaging exercises.

Fantastic class. I use the lessons from Mastering Story Momentum with every script I write. The class taught me to differentiate the story from the plot and break down scene by scene and act by act to ensure the script grabs and holds the reader’s interest throughout. Highly recommend.

We've all felt this, watching a film that starts strong, then drags into intolerable boredom. Max's course helped me fix my plots' pacings, see the story's readers' interest kept until the end. She's a Nicholl winner and fellow, who knows what's needed for a film's plot to take off and soar. Let her teach you that, as she did to me.
