This Screenwriters Workshop is designed to sharpen your storytelling skills while offering a behind-the-scenes look at how stories actually take shape inside a writers’ room. Through guided teaching and collaborative discussion, you’ll explore the building blocks of screenwriting and the psychology behind them, learning how stories land on the page and in a reader’s brain. ✍️✨
Led by Marti King-Young, a working screenwriter, producer, and director, this workshop brings real writers’ room perspective into the space. Known for her collaborative and encouraging approach, Marti blends industry insight with practical, no-nonsense tools that demystify the craft and empower writers to trust their voice.
At the core of the workshop is The Psychology of Screenwriting, focused on writing in a way that mirrors how readers process stories fast, emotionally, and instinctively. Instead of theory or industry war stories, you’ll gain tools you can apply immediately, whether you’re writing your first pilot or refining your tenth feature. 🎬🧠
In this workshop, you’ll learn how to:
Write with speed and clarity using active voice that keeps readers locked in ⚡
Build deeper characters by uncovering the emotional wounds driving their behavior, not just surface traits 🎭
Spot and fix the hidden issues that cause readers to disengage, including clunky dialogue, passive scenes, and common formatting mistakes ✍️
You’ll walk away with practical techniques, a stronger foundation, and the confidence to know your voice and your story truly matter 🎯
Seats are limited to keep the experience intimate and interactive. If you’ve been looking for a space to learn, collaborate, and truly get in the room, this is your moment. Grab your seat before it fills.
