Author and Screenwriter: Courtney Suttle
Production Company: Whiskeyslinger Productions

Log Line: “Writer’s block has never been a fatal condition, until now.”

Subject Matter: The death of a loved one, alcoholism, a bitter divorce, gambling debts, these are a few of the maladies that can cause writer’s block. But one writer’s suffering can create another writer’s opportunity, in this case a mysterious ghost writer, who has the supernatural ability to perfectly mimc any writer’s voice in any language. And for a hefty price he’ll mimic your voice and pen your next best seller. But the mimic has some problems of his own. Frustratingly, he has no writer’s voice of his own, several of his former clients have died under questionable circumstances, and the latest manuscript he’s supposed to finish for the estate of a deceased author contains only two lines: “By the time you read this I’ll already be dead. If you don’t find my killer you’ll be next.” Now the ghost writer is haunted by a ghost from his past and the only way he’ll survive is if he can perfectly mimic a voice he’s never heard.
