016: Using Social Media to Grow Your Network Beyond Your Current Circle (Guest: Sarah J. Eagen)
Sarah J. Eagen is a SAG-AFTRA Actor and Pre-WGA Writer who was recently selected by Blackmagic Collective as one of the “Future Women of TV.” She has successfully gotten meetings with TV writers, connected with Showrunners, and even booked a role on a major TV show all through networking.
Host Jenn Page and Sarah dive in how to grow your network by blind reaching out to people you don’t know. She gives advice on how to build a relationship that is genuine, when and how to ask for the coffee meet up, and why none of it should feel scary. She also talks about scriptwriting and how to be an original voice, as well as how to approach scripts from both the actor and writer POVs.

A writer and actor focused on television, Sarah J. Eagen was a head writer on the new sci fi audio drama anthology "The Veil" from Voxx Studios, writing 4 episodes with unique settings and characters in season 1. She was hired to write a holiday feature film in the fall of 2019, and she co-wrote, produced, and acted in the short Soledad, starring Frankie Loyal of “Mayans, M.C.,” which screened on the Disney lot at the end of 2018.
In 2019, Eagen’s pilots were chosen as a Humanitas NEW VOICES semifinalist, a top ten finalist in the Stage 32 TV Writing Contest, and two pilots were 2nd rounders at the Austin Film Festival. She was also a semifinalist (top 6%) for the 2019 NBC Writers on the Verge program with her Good Girls spec. Previously, her pilots have placed as semifinalists in the 2018 NYTVF Script Comp, as a finalist for the WAN Writers Workshop in 2019, and for the Women in Film/Blacklist Episodic lab in the fall of 2017. One of her parody scripts was performed live by the Parsec award-nominated podcast Once Upon a Wine in 2018. She is a monthly contributor to the online journal Ms in the Biz, where she writes about breaking into writing for TV with advice and resources for writers as well as interviewing prominent showrunners.
