During the many years I've led writing workshops, my students have repeatedly experienced profound breakthroughs in creativity and productivity.
My unique writing games and exercises will improve your scenes, create more resonant
characters and dialog and connect you more deeply to the core of your story. These exercises
will re-wire your brain. You will complete the class with a slew of tools you'll be using for the
rest of your writing life.

During my workshop, I use an experiential learning process. You learn by doing, not by sitting in your chair and listening to me lecture. I don't teach you set-in-stone rules and regulations. There are plenty of books that do that.
In addition to expanding your ability to write intuitively, I will also teach you how to write a powerful logline, different methods of working with an outline and structure, character and dialog enhancement techniques, and ways to make scenes more energetic and entertaining. I cover many basic storytelling concepts, so it's not all "Intuitive Writing." Experienced writers get new perspectives and new approaches to writing. My workshops are often a mix of beginners and seasoned pros.
How to prepare? Read SAVE THE CAT! by Blake Snyder. Keep in mind, if you're writing an experimental film,
you may need to bend a few of his rules.
Please choose a project to work on in the class: a first draft or a re-write. If you're vacillating between a few projects and would like some advice, call me to brainstorm so you can be ready to hit the ground running!
