Lew Hunter's 2005 Superior Screenwriting Colony journal

Sun, 04/23/2006 - 12:17pm — scifiwriterb

Hi all,

Last year I'd attended a screenwriting workshop run by Lew Hunter.

A person from that colony published a pictoral journal at http://www.msgroup.org/msg/introducing_superior.htm

Hope you enjoy the trip down memory lane.

Boris

Thanks for sharing

It looks like you had a great time. What did you take away from the workshop?

re: Thanks for sharing

What did I get from the workshop...?

I shaved a year off my writing curve. And a nice credit to impress agents, producers, etc. as I work to break in.

As for market info, Lew was a bit out of date. No lasting friendships. Sad

Nebraska

I stomped around Nebraska for four years when I lived part time in SD, and CO. Never made it to Superior as I was mostly in the panhandle. I thought western Nebraska was beautiful, Chadron to Scottsbluff.

re: Nebraska

There's a nice man made lake in the southern half, where a body can go speed boating or take a dip.

Lots of fun.

Speaking for myself, though, I could see myself going stir crazy if I were marooned in small town USA.

Really warm in the summer with no shade. And lots of country music on the radio.

I never asked, but I could imagine there being a lot of snow in the winter.
