Our most popular workshop!
A small curated cohort of no more than 8 writers work through script ideas to get a new draft on the page. We start with characters architecture and story structure, then move through to scene construction and pages that engage.
Start the new script right with support, accountability, and new tools you'll take forward into everything you write.
Applications now open:

This is one of my favorite exercises that we do in our workshops. It's a great way to check yourself on theme. Sometimes your characters will surprise you with their insights!

Rewriting is often the hardest and most important part of your journey. Let us go there with you.
Over eight weeks we will dive deep into your film or television script, looking at it from different angles and putting it through enriching diagnostics. Our exercises and talks will give you a fresh perspective on your pages, so your story and characters develop layers and nuance. Each week we will also table-read a section of your script, so you can put your new tools to work. This workshop will take your craft to the next level, and we can celebrate your progress together.
Between sessions, we offer 1-to-1 time to help you with any individual questions or issues (a half hour each week).
