For all levels, including none. If you can’t make the time listed, join and I’ll send a replay.

Free your characters from writing blocks and boring outlines so they can do the writing for you.

I took your free training one year ago and since then co-wrote a screenplay, a pilot, and sold a web series. I couldn’t recommend you more. Thanks so much for the inspiration!

I’ve read so many screenwriting books, but Ela is different. She frees you to be creative and be yourself. Since taking her course I’ve found funding, and will now be producing my web series.

I’ve been wanting to get this story drafted for decades. I joined 2 weeks ago and already finished a draft. Your approach works in a way no other book or class that I’ve read or taken.
