Transcript - Frank Brinkley Writers Workshops; Alie Flierl and Scott Chernoff Webisodes May 8, 2011


#Scriptchat TOPIC:
EURO guest Frank Brinkley @eph_bee Writing Workshops
USA guests Alie Flierl @2degreesofalie and Scott Chernoff @ScottChernoff Webisodes

In tonight’s EURO chat, we talked with Frank Brinkley about setting up a writers group and the advantages and pitfalls. During the chat, it was decided we would post a tab on our Scriptchat website with a list of writers groups around the world (if you have one, please email me Jeanne@scriptchat.com). This spontaneous brilliance is one of the many reasons you shouldn’t miss a week. Just sayin’. At the USA chat, Scott Chernoff and Alie Flierl shared their webisode experience with us, along with a podcast link to what it’s like to work with Conan O’Brien. We talked all things webisodes, and some things not. That happens with comedy writers. J So grab a drink and start reading. Enjoy! @jeannevb

@sweettweenie: @eph_bee I've never joined a writing group, but sounds like it could be good experience #scriptchat
May 8, 2011, 7:05 pm           



 
@mina_zaher: @eph_bee Bet that can be hard for some writers, stepping out their comfort zones. How can they get over their fear of sharing? #scriptchat
May 8, 2011, 7:05 pm

@mina_zaher: @sweettweenie @eph_bee #Fas is a healthy environment for writers. imho ;) #scriptchat

@mina_zaher: @eph_bee What's the diff between a writer's group and say paying a reader to give coverage on your latest draft? #scriptchat

@jazzchantoozie: @Deacyliam I don't think it's usual for writers groups to charge... is it, @eph_bee / others? #scriptchat

May 8, 2011, 7:12 pm           



 
@eph_bee: @mina_zaher @sweettweenie I think the danger with getting a group of writers together is the conflict of interest. #scriptchat
May 8, 2011, 7:12 pm           



 
@eph_bee: Here's the truth: writing is a lonesome job. People get attached to ideas & scared of other's input. #scriptchat
May 8, 2011, 7:13 pm           



 
@eph_bee: But the more important truth is writing is to be read. If no one does, then it's useless. Thus: seek feedback. #scriptchat
May 8, 2011, 7:13 pm           



 
@simone257: @mina_zaher I found @zacsanford's online group & it has been quite useful. Searching folks on Twitter might be another idea tho! #scriptchat

@SoozeJones: I write comedy sketches mainly and to have a read through with others would be ideal. Could your group could help with this? #scriptchat
