Testimonials For Storywise Seminars and Teleseminar

Jen is an incredible guide through what can be a very confusing and turbulent journey.  She takes the complex craft of writing and breaks it down into its clearly defined pieces, honing on on the primal motivations that move characters and audiences alike.  Her notes and critique have pushed me to new levels with each project she's read.  As a baby writer in this business, having that helping hand in your corner makes a difference.  Jen is warm, welcoming, and balances the sharp insight of her notes with the peaceful zen of her presence.  Writing can be a daunting task, one that often places you in an emotionally vulnerable position.  With Jen at your side that task seems less extreme, and she makes you realize that getting to that vulnerable place is where you'll find the GOLD of your story.

Jennifer Grisanti brings an abundance of hard-to-get information and advice on the business and technique of writing for screen and television; all delivered with her extremely attractive and approachable personality. Attended by already-successful and newbie writers alike, Grisanti's Storywise Seminar attracts some of the industry's top executives as speakers, which makes this a must-attend event for both trade craft and networking. I highly recommend this for both professionals and newcomers.
