“The only place I've ever been that just
supports you and lets you create art.
It's art for art's sake.”

Mentors

Mentors are an essential component of the Almanack Screenwriters experience. Our network of industry professionals includes accomplished writers, directors, producers, and creative executives, all of whom bring a generous spirit and invaluable guidance to our writers. Mentors give intensive notes on scripts, run Writers' Room experiences, guide the pitching process, share career advice, and enjoy socializing and camaraderie with the writers-in-residence.
