Description

I am back. This is The Script Mistress podcast. I've already brought back the Ink 2 Screen challenges and have amazing writers entered.

But this is the beginning of something new. New beginnings. This will be a slightly different podcast from Ink 2 Screen.

Who am I: Here is an introduction to me. If you know me, then maybe you'll learn something you didn’t know and if you are new to this then enjoy the ride.

1. I live SD
2. MFA Creative Writing, BA English
3. Navy Veteran/Single Mom/Community theater junkie, acting and directing
4. Writing whenever I can
5. The mistress to whip your writing into shape

The new scope of this podcast

1. Conversational
2. Some education-more motivational
3. Action Items

Coming Attractions:

1. Loglines
2. Character development
3. Story development
4. Interviews, so many great interviews
5. Course creation
6. Mindset shifts

This week's action item: Create an introduction for yourself or if you aren't comfortable with that yet, then one of your characters. Make it as brief and as creative as you can. Something that you can use to introduce yourself or your character to get people interested in you! This is about you.

For both good guys and bad guys, memorable character introductions draw the reader in, giving them a reason to invest in the story emotionally. Get the free worksheet at www.thescriptmistress.com/scene1.
