  • Thank you so much for the WIFV Screenwriters First Five Pages event last night. It was so valuable to me, hearing all the readings and all the feedback, and I'm so grateful for the chance to have my first five pages read and commented upon. I look forward to more such events, and the learning and community that builds from them. - Ellen Lent

You ladies do an exceptional job at keeping independent filmmakers like myself hopeful.
