UPCOMING EVENTS FOR JEN GRISANTI CONSULTANCY INC.TELEVISION PITCH AND PILOT SEMINARI am teaching a Television Pitch and Pilot Seminar on Saturday, July 18, 2009 at UCLA from 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. It's development season and it's time to pitch! In this class, I'll provide tips to help you be more confident about pitching your story and writing your pilot. We will review the pilots that were picked up this year and what stands out about them. I'll help you understand the different identities of each network so that you know where your story fits.
Register now: The cost of the class is $75.00. I only have space for 50 people.
WRITER/YOGA RETREAT

If
you're looking for a one-of-a-kind vacation to treat yourselves even in
this current economy and find new meaning in traveling, join Meaghan
Townsend, one of LA's top yoga instructors, and me in Oahu on August
18-23. For more info,
visit my website.
Register now: sign ups have started! I've extended the deadline from June 5, 2009 to July 15, 2009 since so many writers have told me that they are interested in attending but may not know by June 5th if they'll be staffed. The deposit is $500.00. This amount goes towards the package you choose. The remainder is due at the beginning of August.
NEW PODCAST SERIES
I am very excited to announce my second podcast for my new series,
STORYWISE, features an interview with the talented, witty and clever writer of 17 AGAIN, Jason Filardi. Jason gives incredible insight about his journey as a working writer. He also offers great advice to writers that you will not want to miss. The podcast is available on
my website or
iTunes.
REMINDERThere will be no Friday Night Drinks in June because I will be in Seattle doing my seminar. The next one is on Thursday, July 9th because of the 4th of July holiday.
NEW SERVICEI am offering a new service helping writers on their meeting skills. You can book me for one hour and we'll go over everything you need to be more confident in the room. Please contact me at jennifer@jengrisanticonsultancy.com to set something up.
