LEARN HOW TO WRITE AND SELL YOUR SCREENPLAY WITH
Writers Helping Writers
In little more than a decade, the professional writers on the faculty of Gotham Writers'
Workshop have taught creative writing to more than 50,000 writers. In the process, we've
mastered a method for teaching the craft of writing that is accessible, entertaining, and
effective. It helps that every one of our teachers is a professional writer. Each understands
the challenges you face and knows how to help. And we strictly limit class size to give
every student personal attention. Perhaps that's why we've emerged as New York's
leading creative writing school.
Online Classes "Best of the Web" - Forbes
Since 1997, more than 30,000 writers from around the world have discovered how
effective (and convenient) Gotham online writing workshops can be. Each of our
screenwriting and TV writing workshops includes everything you'd expect in a `live'
class-- lively lectures, in-depth discussions, writing exercises, and insightful, personal
feedback on your work. This may explain why MovieMaker selected ours as the "Best
Classes for Screenwriters" and Forbes selected Gotham online classes as "Best of the Web."

and managing your career. You'll finish the course with a thorough understanding of
the business of screenwriting.

"Gotham gave me my first glimpse into the world of screenwriting. Armed with that knowledge,
I packed up and headed for Hollywood. In less than two years, I went from a student in the
Screenwriting I class, to staff writer on the highest-rated syndicated action hour of the season."
