“In this class, you’ll learn how to narrow your focus and utilize that narrow lens to make your ideas tangible, complex, scriptable.” -Beverly Chukwu

“Send your work out, and send persistently–even to places that reject you five, ten times. I wouldn’t be where I am now if amazing people didn’t encourage and mentor me along the way. Don’t be afraid of mistakes, and don’t be afraid to declare what you have done.” -Meg Eden Kuyatt
“Work towards your publishing goals but also celebrate the chapter you completed, the hour you spent writing, or the finish manuscript you sent to your writing group for critique.” -Ursula Pike
