"Taking Alex's class was a highlight of my year. Not only did I come out of it with a very detailed outline for a pilot, which was my goal, I ended up getting much more. The support, encouragement and fun that Alex brings is infectious and fostered a class that reflected her never ending positivity. And we got great notes and ideas to boot. Looking forward to my next class with her!"

“Writing my first feature was way less painful than I thought it would be thanks to Alex. She helped me with structure, gave great notes and was an excellent accountability coach. When I sent my first draft to my lit reps they loved it and were impressed with how strong it was for a first draft. Thanks Alex!”

"Alex's class is the perfect mix of support, accountability, and concise constructive feedback. A friend read my feature and said "I've never read a first draft in such good shape". Couldn't have done it without Alex!!"

"Equal parts gentle (cuz sometimes I need to be coddled!) and TOUGH (cuz sometimes I need to be pushed!), I cannot imagine a better writing coach than Alex Henrikson. Her understanding of structure is unparalleled, and yet her focus is always on helping you share your unique voice. I didn't call myself a writer before I started working with her, and now I do."

"I've had the treat of being coached by Alex both in her Write Your Damn Screenplay class and in one-on-one coaching work. She is incredibly thorough, supportive, and fun to work with. She communicates structure in the clearest way I've ever had it presented and is always grounded in character and in the story the writer wants to tell. In her class, she not only built a safe and open-hearted working environment, but also a community of artists I now call friends. My writing has grown tremendously during the time I've been working with her -- and that growth has been noticed by my reps and is leading to exciting new opportunities. I truly cannot recommend her enough."

"Alex is a structure superstar and creative connoisseur of character! She enriches and elevates concepts while challenging writers to continue to learn and grow in their craft. She cares about the work as much as she cares about the writer and is a marvelous mentor and motivator. "

"The world of screenwriting is scary, having Alex is like having your own personal Gandalf, but with better hair. "

"Alex has coached scripts which have premiered at festivals across America and internationally, including SXSW, Sitges, Sundance shorts, Cleveland, Portland, Long Beach, Milwaukee, Brooklyn and more. She has coached scripts which have sold to buyers including MGM and Lionsgate, and more that are in various stages of development at production companies. She has coached numerous “8” scripts on blacklist.com and others that have placed or won various screenwriting competitions, including Screencraft and Austin Film Festival. And she is looking forward to working with you."
