Hi, I'm Ben.
When I was younger, my moods ran my life. Mania would spark a flood of ideas, only for depression to tear them down. For years, I thought I was broken.
Everything changed when I realized that my moods weren’t the enemy. They were different parts of me, with their own needs and their own strengths. I gave each part a job in the creative process and started seeing results pretty quickly. That’s how the 3 Plots Method was born.
Since then, I’ve sold multiple scripts, worked as a story consultant, and taught thousands of students to write their own scripts through my TV-writing courses.
Along the way, I realized creatives don’t just need craft — they need a support system — and that that my experiences have made me uniquely suited to provide that.
So I started the F.A.C.T.S. program (Feedback, Accountability, Coaching, Training, and Structure), guiding artists to personal and professional successes, and celebrating their victories. After 20 years of refinement, I’m sharing the system that started it all: the 3 Plots Method.
It changed my story — and it can change yours, too.
The 3 Plots Method can help you:
Gain Balance and Control
-
Improve the relationship between the various components of your life
-
Take ownership of your life and decisions
Maximize Productivity
-
Always have something creative you can turn to, no matter how you feel
-
Complete projects that really mean something to you
Achieve and Maintain Flow State
-
Get into a sustainable rhythm in work and life
-
Enjoy the process and remember why you love the things that you love

3 Plots is available as a weekly, monthly or one-off service. In the first session, I'll teach you my system as well as how it applies to you. You'll leave with your own customized version of a 3 Plots routine, along with a plan for how to maintain and grow it.
