That's right. Without imminent doom, threat of torture, or
some inescapable deadline, I seem virtually useless. So what
did I do? Chain myself to the computer? Start smoking? Rent
a stenographer and a straitjacket? Hell No. Me and some screenwriting
pals started this writers group.
Based in Los Angeles, our group of talented writers and actors
meet every Tuesday evening to present new work, exchange professional
level criticism, and collectively focus on productive, career-minded
objectives.
During a typical meeting, three writers present new or revised
work before the writers group. Professional actors bring this
work to life, on stage in our clean, professional, 46-seat
theater. Smart, dedicated screenwriting professionals take
notes. After the work is read, the group engages in a 15-minute
discussion about the material. Constructive criticism is proffered,
development ideas are volleyed, and each writer is reinvigorated
with a grand new sense of purpose and direction. You've heard
of development hell? Welcome to the other place.
So what about you? Do you just love to write? Do you wake up
early and just type and type and type. While I'm justifiably
jealous, that’s okay too. I’m sure our writers group
could still help. Come check out one of our meetings and see
if it’s right for you. It cost nothing to attend and we
always love new faces. Just
fill out our easy web form so we have your information on record. We
look forward to meeting you soon. See you Tuesday night!
