I just wanted to say THANK YOU for creating the course. This was the best investment I’ve ever made as a writer! I have learned so much more about my script (I scrapped the old one altogether!) I’ve written the teaser and am in Act One still, but the daily lessons keep me focused and encourages me to go deeper with my characters and their journeys. I’m so excited about the possibilities of this story. I also like the fact that the lessons arrive in my inbox at around the same time every morning. I’m up at 6am writing and then when I see the lesson, I’m ready to go! Thank you, thank you, thank you. Have a great day!

Okay, so I’ve done McKee’s bootcamp, done top screenwriting graduate school work, ScreenwritingU… Won a couple of big screenwriting contests, but for whatever reason, your online class has worked magic. Was I just ready for the message? Is it just a manageable format to undertake? Some of both? I don’t know, but I am one happy camper. I have been messing with this script idea for about two years, then I complete something MUCH DIFFERENT... Thank you!!

I signed up for this course, because I’ve always wanted to write a script. The screenplay course helped push me and my script idea forward. Although I didn’t write every single day like I should have, it helped me move closer to a finished script! Thanks to this course I have completed my first script!
