APRIL 2010

April 2010 – Screenwriting for Lawyers
April  24 – New York Law School – 185 West Broadway, New York, NY 10013-2921
I’ve never met a lawyer who didn’t have dozens of great stories. A legal practice deals with human nature at its best and worst and involves situations of tremendous conflict and deep emotion. Emotional conflict is the bedrock of all great films, television shows and novels. You have the stories. You have the basic writing skills. This one-day workshop will take what you already know and apply it to a new form.  Lots of lawyers have found fulfillment and second careers as writers.  Here’s how to start the process while still active in your legal practice.
