In this episode we interview one of our screenwriting instructors Karen Janszen. She’s a working screenwriter as well as an instructor at the American Film Institute. She wrote a movie that was recently (March 2022) released on Netflix called “Rescued by Ruby”, and we discuss that and what it’s like to write a script based on true events. We also talk about screenwriting in general and what Karen’s process looks like. NB: There are spoilers for “Rescued by Ruby” in this episode!
