Greetings and welcome
to my website!
As some of you may
already know, I used to write a popular monthly column on "the biz",
focusing mostly on screenwriting and development. Through the years, I've
had the chance to meet many of the readers of my columns at conferences
and workshops, some of whom would show me the tattered copies of my columns
they had put in a notebook or folder - all of them pleading with me to
publish them in a book.
After much procrastination
and prodding and with a lot of encouragement, support, and some much-needed
"good luck", The Script Selling Game became a reality. But as
I was writing, I quickly found out that it wasn't enough to simply re-print
my columns. And for a change, I found myself on the same side of the desk
as the writers I often counseled - conquering writer's block, doing research,
struggling to find the perfect words or phrases, updating material, and
juggling my work and life as my manuscript deadline quickly approached.
Throughout this creative
journey, I realized, with great clarity, just how fortunate I've been
to have had the friendship and support of so many people, most of whom
have been acknowledged in my book.
And through my dozens
of seminars and workshops, I also realized the amazing, eye-opening lessons
I've learned from being in the company of writers, like you!
To all of you wonderful
writers I've worked with - past, present and future - thank you for inspiring
me with your creativity and empowering the world with your words and visions
and
may all your cinematic dreams comes true!
All the best,
