 Script Writer Foundations 101
3 Day Intensive

"an exceptional experience. "

- Clark Moses - filmmaker

"I was both nervous and excited to take this writers workshop with Susanna. I never felt much like a writer but the course helped me fill that gap and I gained confidence in my ability to understand what goes into writing a script. She does such a great job of walking you through the layers of a story, sharing tips and tools...a great cheerleader to help develop yourself further. A priceless gift I am so happy to receive!"

- April Pineiro, CA writer and filmmaker
