Scene 42: Interview with August's Winner, Karen Mitani

Welcome to The Script Mistress, where we dive into the world of screenwriting. I'm your host, Amber Bosworth, and I couldn't be more thrilled to share this exciting episode with you. In this episode, we have an exclusive interview with the winner of our August  Challenge, Karen Mitani.

Amidst a pool of extraordinary talent, Karen's script, "Another Man’s Treasure," stood out like a shining star. The challenge that month centered around an image of an antique bicycle from the past. The theme was about bringing the past to life and Karen rose to that challenge.

In this script, Karen explores how a magic bicycle can take you back and help you with a regret you might be holding on years later.

Karen has recently joined the challenges and talks about how this monthly exercise has helped improve her writing exponentially.

Let’s hear her talk all about it…

It was an honor to speak with Karen. I love learning about other writer’s processes as they come to this industry with no experience but a passion for the medium.

Hopefully, you heard what Karen talked about and can understand how these monthly challenges can really help you as a beginner writer. We just wrapped up the September challenge but the October one is open for registration. That will run from Oct. 18-22. Make sure you reserve your spot at www.thescriptmistress.com/ink2screen.
