I love this craft.
In addition to my own works, I teach scriptwritingto the amazing community of writers who live here in Oregon. I am nearly as proud of the scripts sold by my students as I am of my own. Please take a look at the "Alumni Success" page where I get to brag on my alumni.
On that golden day when my agent replied that yes, I was sufficiently well established in Hollywood, that I could sell scripts to them without living there, I moved to Oregon where I've been even more productive, both as a writer, and as a teacher.
My teaching credits include seven years at the UCLA Film School and over 10 years teaching scriptwriting here in Oregon.
I have also been President of Willamette Writers. for several years.
If screenwriting is your dream, perhaps together we can make it come true.
Sincerely,
Cynthia Whitcomb
