by John | Aug 30, 2021 | Our Winners

It’s been an exciting summer for us and for many of our winners and partnerships in the industry. We’ve got several new success stories to share with you in the coming days and weeks as well as our Industry Diary updates, and we’re all set for another big pitching drive this Fall!

First, an update about a multiple WriteMovies winner who’s got two exciting projects in development with us: thanks to a request from an Oscar-nominated director, Vanisha Renée Pierce is adapting WHEN IN ROHM from TV pilot to feature film (find out more about it in our interview with Vanisha on YouTube HERE), and we’re also pitching her latest WriteMovies winner EZEKIEL to industry in the coming days and weeks too.

But as if that wasn’t enough – here’s exciting news of other partnerships she’s involved with thanks to her wins with us:

Vanisha says:

“Hi Ian, WOW. All of this is super helpful and informative. Thanks so much! I super appreciate you!… Thanks so much for the updates, but most importantly, thanks a ton for all your wonderful feedback and support in my recent endeavors. I feel the excitement and enthusiasm, and it really lights a fire under me! 🙂

…Because of my contest win for WHEN IN ROHM and you giving me that sweet prize package… I JUST GOT HIRED TO DEVELOP AND WRITE AN INDIE SCI-FI TELEVISION SERIES!!

I actually landed TWO paid contracts: one for the sci-fi TV series and the other for developing pitches and treatments for 3 thriller features and 3 TV concepts, with some nice contractual bonuses thrown in there.

These, I hope, are just the first steps of many I hope to take in my writing career. It’s always been my dream to be a TV showrunner, and I’m very much on my way to getting there, all because of you!

I just wanted to thank you all so much for believing in me and in my work and for being my first champions in this industry. I so appreciate you, and now, whenever anyone asks about my origin story, you lovely guys at WriteMovies will always be a part of it.

Ok, back to the writing! Thanks as always for these fantastic opportunities, and talk very very soon! I can’t WAIT for you to get a glimpse of this new, two-hour thrill ride through When in Rōhm!”

So things couldn’t be much hotter for Vanisha right now! Contact talent@atalentscout.com if you’re interested in working with this excellent writer too.

And, stay tuned in the coming days and weeks for other fascinating success stories from WriteMovies winners, and our Industry Diary updates about other projects and partnerships we’re involved with – we can’t wait to share it all with you!
