This podcast is an interview with December’s Ink 2 Screen winner, Joni Mitchell.

Hello! You’ve joined The Script Mistress for Scene 18: Interview with December’s Winner, Joni Mitchell. I am your host, Amber Bosworth and I’m so excited to bring you this episode! I had a great time talking with Joni.

Joni was one of over 30 writers that were tasked with writing a new script based on an image prompt. Since it was December, I wanted to have an image that would have the spirit of togetherness without making it about the holiday season. Joni wrote, Six Hungry Friends.

Logline: When six friends join for a feast, they must agree on a topic for a toast before anyone can eat.

Such a great interview. You can find Joni on Instagram @jonimitchell3. You can also read her work and the other finalists from Decemeber at www.thescriptmistress.com/inkwinners.

WRITING ACTION: This is a fun one if you are stuck in your current project. Take some advice from Joni or research 3 fun ways to get yourself unstuck. Write out your scenes on notecards, print out a few pages and edit with pen and paper, or have some friends/family read a scene out loud for you to get a feel of the pacing. Feel free to share your insights on the Facebook page at www.facebook.com/ink2screen. You never know if your insights will inspire someone else.

I have many freebies to help your writing. With this episode, I think the free outline template could be a nice help if you find yourself stuck with your current project. Download it on the episode webpage /scene18 or www.thescriptmistress.com/outline.
