Holiday Writing Under Contract

12/21/2018

0 Comments

 
As the holidays warm our hearths, I want to wish all of my friends and fellow filmmakers many blessings!  May your year end with joy and celebration for all that you have accomplished.

I am honored to be spending these final days in 2018 working on a very exciting project as a screenwriter.  While the NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) restrains the information I can share right now, it will suffice to say that the story is something that I connected to instantly: a story that makes the world a better place by being told.   I truly appreciate the producer's faith in my ability to give this story the voice it needs.

Coming in January is an event that I have been working closely with the Atlanta Film Festival to bring to fruition.  The Page to Stage (P2S) competition gives Georgia screenwriters the opportunity to have their scripts performed in a live staged reading with professional actors and director.  I am amazed at the creative team we've put together, and I look forward to seeing you there!

I enjoyed organizing the Black List  Atlanta Happy Hour events this year.  Many thanks to the wonderful guests that have joined us: writer/director Emily Dell of the CryptTV series Troubled Youth, Michael Lucker's Screenwriter School, PeachyScreen, Adam Jahnke of the podcast Tribulation, and Laconic Productions. Laconic's Shaun Mathis and screenwriter Arianna Hester have stepped into leading the group for the next year, and I look forward to seeing them in 2019!

Atlanta Film Festival also hosted the Screencraft Writers Summit this year! It was an amazing event, featuring Academy and Emmy-winning screenwriters talking frankly about craft and business, and I can't wait to attend again in 2019!
