WHY DO WE EAT IN A SCREENWRITING CLASS

Because if we're holding bread, we're not holding weapons.

Because screenwriting is a spiritual activity and I like the association to churches.

Because if you work for a TV show, they'll feed you.

Because we never know what tangible thing we'll get from a particular class. but being fed - that's tangible and real.

Because while we eat, we get to know one another. And then we feel more comfortable. Vulnerable. Able to write and share vulnerable stories.
