Testimonials
Working with Aly in Advanced Spec Lab was invaluable – her notes were smart, honest and encouraging. I always left class feeling elated and super jazzed to implement her helpful feedback. Her notes were just so amazing! I also appreciate that she’s a working TV writer/producer, and her generosity in sharing some behind-the-scenes insight with a room of new writers. She’s like a cooler, hipper fairy godmother who will dust magic over your script. Highly Recommended!
I really enjoyed Spec Lab with Alyson and I know I would not have ended up with as strong of a script without her guidance. I really love Script Anatomy classes! I get so much out of the tools and tasks and I find myself and my work pushed miles ahead of what I could do on my own (and much further than what I’ve experienced in classes elsewhere).
