Hello fellow screenwriters and screenwriting fans!
My name is Eytan and last year I had the pleasure of volunteering at the first ever Toronto Screenwriting Conference. It was such a wicked experience! I was responsible for filming the speakers in certain classrooms so I got to watch sessions with some awesome screenwriting experts like Sheldon Bull and Dara Marks. I also got to attend the marquee speaker sessions. I got to listen to Rhett Reese (Zombieland), Tim Long (The Simpsons), Rob C. Cooper (Stargate), and Chuck Tatham (How I Met Your Mother). I also got to hang out with film students like myself and meet industry professionals. Overall, a great experience!

This year is my final year studying film at Humber and I happened to get my internship at Meridian Artists, one of Canada's top literary agencies. Meridian Artists agent, Glenn Cockburn, founded the Toronto Screenwriting Conference and it is being managed this year by indie producer Cher Hawrysh. I'm so excited to be involved in this year's conference as more than a volunteer. From now until the conference (and then beyond!), myself and the rest of our staff and interns at the TSC will be blogging right here. We will each talk about the conference and anything that has to do with our speakers and screenwriting in general.
Feel free to comment on our posts with questions about the conference or if you just want to spark some screenwriting related discussions.

I hope to see you all on April 9 and 10 at Ryerson University’s Ted Rogers School of Management where the conference will be held.
Awesome! I'm excited to be interning as well- this year's conference is going to be great!
