NHMC Note

Greetings,

I wanted to share with you a note Ruben received regarding the National Hispanic Media Coalition's Scriptwriting Search. As the letter writer notes, if you wrote and didn't get selected don't get discouraged! Read the recommended books and try again next year!

------------------------------

Hi Ruben

The competition was much stronger this year and we had more writers applying than ever before. Please tell your writers to not get discouraged and apply again next year. I highly recommend for your writers to read the following books: "The Sitcom Career Hand Book" by Mary Lou Belli (ISBN-13: 9780823028740) and "Writing the TV Drama Series" by Pamela Douglas (ISBN-13: 9781932907346). Both of these books are given to the participants of this year's program and are recommended by the VPs of Talent Development for ABC and NBC.

Best Regards,

Acasia Flores
