Monday
01
Writers with Disabilities Meeting
7-9 p.m. – WGAW, 2nd Floor, Room 2A
Category: Inclusion and Equity Committee Meetings
Info: (323) 782-4589. Eligible members only. The Writers with Disabilities Committee is looking for ways to aid disabled writers in pursuing their careers in Hollywood and to encourage accurate portrayals of the disabled in film and television. Please come, shake hands, and talk about expanding opportunities for all of us.
THE USUAL NOTE FROM LB: From the summer of 2002 to the spring of 2010, Gwen the Beautiful and I were the proud and often exhausted owners of a beautiful Ozarks property we called Cloud Creek Ranch.
