"I can tell you that your blueprint has certainly made screenwriting so much easier for me. I've finished another script and am working on another one. I just enjoy it so much. I could hardly wait to tell you that while I was enrolled, I simultaneously applied all that I learned to a comedic 1/2 hr pilot script and my work was requested (by a top agency)! I am confident that it would never have been requested had I not applied what I learned about the 12 sequences. The guidance and wisdom you shared is helping some of us share amazing stories that we otherwise would not have known how to. Thank you!"
