Vinay Patel is hosting a series of free half hour advice clinics for anything related to you as a writer. Whether that’s career questions: moving between theatre and telly, how to approach agents/when is right, trying to figure out a plan for the year, or more specifically work-related questions such as trouble with a particular element of a script or uncertainty on how to approach a rewrite. The session is personalized to you and you can discuss whatever you’d like.
The only thing to note is that Vinay can’t read any scripts in advance – they have 1-2-1 dramaturgy sessions if you are looking for script feedback.
