Your Open House invitationHello friends! On Sunday, June 9th, I’m hosting a Finish Your Screenplay Open House... and you’re invited! This session is open to everyone! In case you missed last week’s email and are wondering what Finish Your Screenplay even is, the quick recap: FYS is a live screenwriting class starting June 23rd. We’ll meet for 4 weekly* "roadmap" sessions where you'll get a detailed explanation of what happens and what to aim for in your screenplay, sequence by sequence, so that you can apply it immediately. By the end of our time together you’ll have your entire screenplay mapped out in a complete draft, outline, or scriptment (your choice). Additional details here and a full schedule and description here. But, back to today's invitation… What can you expect from the Open House? Expect a fairly casual, informal session. The agenda will go something like this:

👋 I've gotten a lot of requests for a dialogue class, so for the past couple of months I've been behind the scenes creating one. It’s a 4-week class starting on September 29th. (Save the date!) And, as always, I want to make sure this class provides as much useful information as it possibly can. So... What questions do you have? Is there something about writing dialogue that you haven’t quite been able to figure out? Reply and let me know. And now, onto our regularly scheduled Friday...

Hey, it's Naomi with your weekly screenwriting memo! Today's topic... Does anyone want to read your screenplay? Here’s something you might not have realized about getting your spec script read: The more attractive your concept, the more time and attention it’ll get from busy readers (producers, execs, managers, agents i.e. people who aren’t being paid to read the script). In other words, if they can't tell from the concept that it’s a movie they want to make, or that they can sell to someone...
