Hello everyone!
My name is Lara Ayad, and I work as a host of a local arts show in upstate NY. I'm also a budding screenwriter and have a background as an art historian and college professor. Nice to meet all of you! I'm going to Los Angeles in mid- to late-January to network, meet with friends, and possibly attend one or two screenwriting or entertainment industry workshops for one day while I'm there. I know UCLA extension does classes, but they last weeks, if not months, and cost quite a bit. Does anyone have suggestions for screenwriting classes, workshops, or even just organized meetups that can help me network and learn a little more about what things look like on the ground in LA? Thanks a bunch for any tips you might have.
Thanks for the suggestion, Dan!
