I’m Makeda Ekakitie, a published author, publisher, screenwriter, and multidisciplinary storyteller specializing in scripted television, pilots, book-to-screen adaptation, and character-driven story development.
I currently have one scripted television series under a shopping agreement with PFM Entertainment, actively being positioned in buyer lanes. I also have a second scripted project under an attachment agreement with Kristin Iris Johnson, co-creator/writer of Wicked City, currently airing on ALLBLK/AMC+.
My work blends emotional depth, commercial structure, and strong character voice. With a background in clinical psychology, social work, publishing, performance, and creative leadership, I bring a rare ability to understand human behavior and translate that insight into compelling scripts, treatments, pitch materials, and screen-ready concepts.
I’m especially passionate about helping authors, producers, and creatives transform books, memoirs, true stories, and original ideas into polished scripted materials for film, television, streaming, and vertical formats.
My services include pilot writing, feature writing, book-to-screen adaptation, treatments, beat sheets, pitch decks, series bibles, loglines, script polishing, and story consulting. I write with heart, structure, and strategy—always focused on helping a story become clear, visual, emotionally engaging, and market-ready.
