Motivation and commitment are critical for the writer. Is it in you? If you think it is, contact me.

If you’ve always wanted to learn how to write for stage, screen or TV, my online courses are a fun departure from traditional classrooms or chat room workshops. All lectures and assignments are provided in an Adobe Acrobat workbook that allows you to write at your own pace, submit your homework and questions via email and receive one-on-one feedback. Registration for these 4-6 week classes is ongoing, and sign-up fees can be paid by check or through PayPal. Customized courses are also available in fiction, nonfiction and book cover design. For additional information, drop me an email with the subject line ONLINE CLASSES.

What Christina's Clients are saying...

"I think it’s only natural that, by writing in a proverbial vacuum, the writer finishes a project completely unaware of certain flaws and the like that a fresh set of knowledgeable and trusted eyes may see.I found Christina’s insightful and honest critique of the first draft of my screenplay invaluable.Her constructive criticism and suggestions assisted me tremendously in formulating and writing the second draft."

"What’s on your 'someday list'?  Learn a new language, travel to an exotic place, change the world or lose those pesky extra pounds?    If you are reading this testimonial, chances are your list includes “get published”! Christina Hamlett helped me cross this one off my list and hopefully can do the same for you.

After reading one of her articles in Writer’s Journal, I contacted her to review some of my work.  Her response was enthusiastic, warm and friendly with a healthy dose of reality. Christina helped me pinpoint flaws, made suggestions for corrections and patiently read rewrite after rewrite until she felt my play was ready for submission.  Together we held our breath until the amazing news came in the mail. My play was going to be published! Christina, my mentor, my biggest cheerleader and now my friend, toasted my success from across the continent.

If you are serious about getting published, contact Christina Hamlett and get started.  Then you can work on losing those extra pounds or perhaps save the world, whichever is easier."

"One of the most wonderful educational experiences of my adult life was to take Christina Hamlett’s book Screenwriting for Teens to heart and start penning a screenplay with a fellow writer wannabe.  As a consultant on our project, Christina was helpful giving us guidance and encouragement from the start.  With our final work, her notes were incredibly informative and insightful.  She is extremely knowledgeable and enlightened us to the many nuances essential to the screenwriting craft which we’d missed.  She is able to direct her critique in a way that is positive and supportive of one’s future in the field.  We are very grateful for the opportunity to have been under her influence with our work."

"Christina’s online class provides a structured and personal education in screenwriting. Her expertise as a playwright allowed me to go beyond screenwriting into a deeper understanding of storytelling and characters. She was able to adapt the curriculum to my experience as an individual writer. Her personal emails were in-depth and thought provoking. She also allowed me to expand a few weak plots and outlines into a contest-ready script in a matter of six weeks. And, the cost? This writer, living-on-a-budget, could easily afford the investment. You can pay an unknown reader three times the amount and not get the in-depth, constructive, personal notes you’d get from Christina."
