[Joan Dougherty]

Joan Dougherty, prefer female pronouns

I’ve written two screenplays, but only one worth discussing.

[Larry Ridlen]

I’m Larry Ridlen (he/him). I have written or co-written five features and two shorts. One of the features was optioned but has since expired, and one of the shorts was produced. From this class I am looking to gain the skills necessary to build a successful writing career. Something unusual about me: I am the co-creator and co-writer of the comic book series, City of Mith and I also do the lettering.
