Applause: Tales From The Script

This documentary about screenwriting was sent by the gods. It reinforces a number of things I've already told my students - but I think some don't buy it until someone Famous tells them, somebody who wrote a movie they've heard of. I show it early on in my 10-week class. Today.

Weekend work is reviewing their story ideas.

Really glad I got to read my colleague's book/journal parody. What a different writing climate it comes out of! Aiming for the highest, not the lowest, common denominator.

Elite rocks!
