Hey, Dallas screenwriters!

Attention, Texas! Next week, I will be doing a presentation hosted by the Dallas Screenwriters Association.

When: Friday, April 17, 7PM CDT

Where: The Company of Actors, 13331 Preston Rd, Dallas, Texas 75240

Topic: Theme: What Is It And How To Use It To Empower Your Stories

In my estimation, there is no subject related to screenwriting more amorphous and less understood than Theme. I’ve got some interesting ideas which I’ll be sharing, using several movies as examples. It’s not just theory. I will provide you a number of practical ways you can put these ideas to use in zeroing in and developing your story’s themes. I’ll also answer your questions about anything screenwriting related.

You may find out more information about the event on the Dallas Screenwriters Association website and on Facebook.

DSA members: Free. Non-members: $10 at the door. If you’re not a member, you should consider it. The Dallas Screenwriters Association has regular meetings with industry professionals, scene readings with local actors, workshops and seminars, a whole host of events and activities to support writers in their creative pursuits.

So Texas writers, come on out on April 17 for what promises to be a lively evening of learning and discussion about the craft.

I look forward to seeing you!
