Cynthia Whitcomb's 2010 Fall
Screenwriting Class
Veteran screenwriter Cynthia Whitcomb reveals everything today's aspiring screenwriter needs to know about writing and selling a movie script to Hollywood, cable TV, or network television in this informative class. Students will be taught how to tell a story as a film, how to format a script, how to write compelling scenes, and taught proven, award-winning strategies for getting the right people to look at your work, marketing a "spec" script, making a splash at pitch meetings, and much more. Plus, they'll discover what today's top agents and producers look for in a script, the types of deals you can expect to make, as well as an appendix of agents who specialize in handling scriptwriters.

Ride the Waves in 2010!
Possibly the most exciting news is that my Writing the Waves Trans-Atlantic cruise this past
April/May was such a smash hit that I'm hosting another writing cruise next spring. The dates are
April 10 - 24, 2010. We depart from Miami, and arrive in Rome by way of the Canary Islands, Barcelona,
the south of France and Florence or Piza (your choice.) The cruise prices begin at $1,377 including the
complete 9 day writing course. That's less than $100 per day. Non-writing spouses or roommates are $500 less. Air
fare not included. To learn more, visit Cynthia's web site.
