WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MAKE IT HAPPEN?
I was just sitting here thinking about what you writers are doing to make your writing career happen. Of course you are writing. Then what? What are you doing with those finished screenplays? Are you sending them to screenplay consultants,
film festivals, writers conferences, professional writers that you've met at prior
events????
If you live outside of the Los Angeles area, what are you doing to get an agent in Los Angeles? Do you know how to do that?
Today I received an email from a writer along with a 21 page outline. Both the
email and the outline were so grammatically incorrect that I could not make sense out of them. Are you sure that you are writing good prose? Are you using the correct
script format? Does your script have a plot?
Let me know what's going on with you. Perhaps I can help.

About Me
When I was an agent my clients sold hundreds of hours of television movies, mini-series, episodic TV and numerous motion pictures, including those in the $1 Million range. I served as Executive Vice-President of Women In Film, a voting member of the Emmy Awards, a member of The Academy Of Television Arts & Sciences, was on the Advisory Board of Creative Screenwriting Magazine and many other activities.
I've been a guest speaker at many events including: The Big Bear Film Festival, The ScriptWriters Network, The Great American Pitch Fest, Sherwood Oaks and more.
