Hands Across the Sea
Novelist, UCLA instructor and bon vivant Caroline Leavitt gave an unexpected shout-out to the Rouge Wave yesterday and I'd like to give her a shout-out back. C'mon Wavers, a big red wave to Ms. Leavitt! For those of your working on or considering working on a novel, Caroline's blog is a great resource.
What does the Wave-inatrix say about writing in many different formats? She says DO IT. Don't let screenwriting atrophy your writing brain. Work it every day, Wavers - poetry, essays, fiction, reviews - be holistic about your writing.
If there are any Rouge Wavers who have a 1st person essay about their experiences screenwriting (500 words, max) that they'd like to share please submit HEREand you might just be on the Rouge Wave.
And don't forget to check out Caroline's blog and show her some love - Rouge Wave style.

Thank you so very, very much! Would you consider coming to my UCLA class to answer questions? You just have to log on and there will be a folder. This is a serious offer!

Julie,
Love to write a novel.... someday.
Right now screenwriting is in my blood and there are just too many stories to tell. However, when I do sit down to pen my tome it will be a historical piece in the vein of Bernard Cornwell's Saxon Tales. Love that stuff.
Regards,
Mike
