Gail Henrickson

Gail Henrickson is a retired professional writer recognized for her proficiency in synthesizing, interpreting and communicating complex information across a range of formats. Throughout a career as an independent marketing consultant, her work was valued by a wide range of clients for her insightful strategic approach, bottom-line orientation, and empathetic capacity to reach and influence target audiences.

Gail's gift is also revealed in her other scripts: 'The Artemis Factor', a multi-award-winning feature that exposes factory farming to a mainstream audience, whose protagonist is a heroic 'woman of a certain age'; and 'Happy Hour', a cathartic tale of love, loss and women's friendship told in 37 pages. Other creative ventures include her pithy 'Rules for Romance: Relationship red flags and other advice you may not care to hear' (available on Amazon), and a former line of greeting cards from Icebreaker Communications (‘to help you say what's hard to say’).

Personal statement: With utmost respect for the film industry's unparalleled ability to touch hearts and influence minds, I submit my offering with sincere humility and abiding hope.

‘Walk-in’ approaches a timely and difficult subject with a unique story that’s digestible for mainstream audiences … while redressing the pervasive, unjust ‘blame/shame the victim’ double standard with the narrative POV coming from the victims themselves. My highest hope is that this story will offer the audience powerful insight into how to recognize, handle, and break free of their own narcissistic predators.
