Session Synopsis
Most writers make one very grave mistake when they are starting out—they don’t realize how many opportunities there are for writers.
Throw away the myth of the starving artist. Writing can—ca-ching!—make you a fantastic living.
Plays, screenplays, TED Talks, video games, television treatments, viral posts–Sarah Montana has done it all. Never mind her frontline social justice work to get fair pay and benefits for talent.
Do not miss this very rare opportunity to sit with Christopher Award-winning, celebrated screenwriter, playwright and television writer Sarah Montana. Find out:
- What video games can teach us about page-turning narratives.
- How she changed the writing process in Hollywood circles and how it can help you, too.
- Why she gave up a blooming career in opera for the writing life (and whether it was actually worth it).
- What makes fantastic writing go viral and what to do if it happens to you. (You will need her advice on this one!)
- How to pace yourself when it comes to juggling work for pay and your passion project.
- What good therapy has to do with a career that rises like a rocket.
