Welcome to Plot Luck — where storytelling takes center stage, and everyone brings something to the table.

I’m Brian — a writer, story consultant, and studio insider with a background in development, production, and script doctoring. I’ve worked with over 600 writers across film, TV, and games, helping more than 30 get signed professionally.

Here, we cross mediums and genres to explore what makes stories work — from blockbuster movies and prestige TV to groundbreaking games and unforgettable anime. We break down why great stories land, how to fix the ones that don’t, and how you can use those same tools in your own creative life.

🎬 Whether you’re crafting your own story or just love pulling them apart, Plot Luck is your seat at the storytelling table. Subscribe to join the feast, stir the plot, and bring something to the story.
