@dawndekeyserwrites: I wish more aspiring TV writers knew that it wasn’t enough to “have a great idea” to break into Hollywood. You need a finished product. Take it from me, a seasoned screenwriter in the biz for 30+ years and who’s written on Emmy award-winning TV shows. Hollywood needs YOU, and you’re not going to get in the door without a finished SCRIPT! Need help getting there? COMMENT SCRIPT to get my workbook, JUMPSTART YOUR SCRIPT, that asks you SIX QUESTIONS about your writing. Why is it only $27, you ask? Because the strategies to write a screenplay that sells are simple, but they’re not necessarily easy, I walk you through each of them. The 411? I’m sick of the boys’ clubs and nepo-baby cash-cows. So, I decided to be the change. I made an affordable beginner's writer’s guide so that you don’t have to fall on your face and learn the hard way (like I did). Breaking into Hollywood AND STAYING in was hell. So, let me make your journey a little easier. Just the truth. The actual behind-the-scenes of how to break into Hollywood. https://www.dawndekeyser.com/jys-workbook ---------- Above is a nugget from The Writer’s Breakthrough summit I ran a few years ago. I sat down with award-winning novelists, screenwriters, directors, and actors. Big names. Big talent. Huge thank you to one of my incredibly talented friends, ROB COHEN. @robisbeingcanadian Rob is a writer and director whose credits include "Somebody Somewhere", "The Ben Stiller Show", "Lady Dynamite", "The Simpsons", and "Muppets Mayhem".
