  • Summary

  • Hello, my name is Thomas J. Bellezza, and welcome to The Write Mindset. The short, short version: for ten years I've been a script doctor and story consultant, helping writers get their thoughts organized onto the page by outlining, writing, or guiding them. Since the 90's, I've been in the entertainment industry, writing my own scripts, novels, poetry, music, and lyrics for a living.

    Podcast Mission:

    To educate writers on the craft of writing through my knowledge of how I was taught, learned, and currently teach my clients. My focus is on narrative, outlining, brainstorming, and both character and plot development in general, which can be applied to novels or scripts.

    A secondary aspect of this channel will be analyzing (and reviewing) films (new and old), novels, and occasionally there will be interviews with writers to get their insight on the craft of writing.

    My tertiary goals will be to elaborate on the business of writing.

    Work, grow, and rise together! Peace in harmony as your develop The Write Mindset.

  • The Art of Narrative: Writing Your First Novel with Paulo Pérez

    The Art of Narrative: Writing Your First Novel with Paulo Pérez
    Feb 14 2025
    Paulo Pérez joins Thomas J. Bellezza on The Write Mindset Podcast, discussing the art of narrative and writing your first novel. What is a narrative, how should you approach your novel, and what is the process? All topics we go over on today's episode!

    Paulo Pérez is a Bolivian-American filmmaker and novelist. He grew up in Maryland, but at the age of 17, Paulo Pérez left the comfort of home. Journeying across multiple continents refined his artistic and entrepreneurial vision. Flashforward two years; he traveled west to broaden his knowledge at Arizona State University, where he graduated Summa Cum Laude. The Human Supremacist, his debut feature-length film as a director, is noted for its humorous tactics, imaginative concept, and stellar cast performances. His work across mediums is identified by experimental techniques in addition to a peculiar brand of dialogue.
