Screenwriting Workshop

West Coast Screenwriting asks,

“Are you feeding your inner screenwriter!"


January 22nd – 24th, Screenwriter Brian Paisley (Lies Like Truth and Sacred Smoke) and I are holding the latest of our ‘Weekend Blitz’ screenwriting workshops, this one sponsored by the Victoria Film Commission. The workshop will be held at the Film Commission’s Offices on Victoria's Inner Harbour

The team-taught workshop, geared towards new and emerging screenwriters, is limited to nine participants, maximum, which affords the participants an intensive, personally-directed weekend.

All the details of the workshop curriculum and our bio's are available on the homepage of our website www.westcoastscreenwriting.com

This is the fifth 'Weekend Blitz' workshop we have done; they now sell out and receive very strong positive feedback. Of especial note is the increasing number of novel and short story writers who are taking our course to learn how to adapt their work for the screen. Incidentally, Brian and I are both currently working on adaptations of well-received Canadian novels.

Anyone registering before December 31st will receive an ‘Early Bird’ discount as noted on the website. If you are interested, please let me know; if you know anyone else who might benefit from this weekend... please let them know!

Thank you,
Keith Digby
