"To spark the imagination, your pen must become a brush."

~ H. P. Shreve

She has authored six books and has a passion for telling stories as well as illustrating them. In her youth, Sumi e painting influenced her future minimalist artwork.

Ms. Shreve is a Marylander with a rich ancestral history in America with several strong areas of historical knowledge: the US Army Interwar years, The Pacific/WWII, The Jazz Age, the history of Hawaii, The Keelboat Age, WWI and WWII, and has created well-researched original film projects mirroring those times and more. 

 

Through her company, Shreve Interactive, Inc., Ms. Shreve has edited 20+ books, ghostwritten several more and used her artwork for countless book covers. She is member of NYWIFT (New York Women in Film and Television) and can also be found on LinkedIn and IMDb Pro.

Story Design:  $125. per hour

Are you in search of fleshing out a high-concept idea? Have a concept for a novel, graphic novel, TV show, film, or podcast? I construct 'from the ground up' story frameworks that include:  historical context, world-building, story engine and arc, tone, visual themes, premise and message, complex protagonist profile/arc, and more. 

​

After the elements have been decided, I can then create a Show Bible or Treatment to sell the concept including:

Logline, synopsis, show summary, story engine, tone, themes, main character conflicts/misbelief, secondary characters, one season summary & episode summaries (for TV series/ mini series).
