The past two workshops at PJ's were a great success. In Metaire we sold out the workshop with a great group of participants, some with experience and some without. In that group were three writers who collectively have published more than 40 books and were interested in learning how to turn their stories into screenplays. At our PJ's uptown workshop we had a great variety of first time writers and future filmmakers and some who have written screenplays and published books. All in all it was a great time and a lot of creative ideas were shared by all.

Students were introduced to a unique program which teaches a step-by-step process to writing an original screenplay in six weeks. Student Georgia Scott said: "I thought your workshop was excellent, and if I don't have a finished product by the end of this year, it's certainly not due to your workshop not providing me with the knowledge on how to do so.
