Screen Lab / Adrian Mead

Hope you all had a great Christmas. Here's a screenwriter-y opportunity for the New Year, which I can thoroughly vouch for as I got a place on the inaugural lab back in 2007 - and very enlightening it was too. You can read more about my experience here. Here's the info :

Are you currently writing short stories, novels or plays, and have you ever wondered what it takes to write for Film and TV? After the success of last year's course, Scottish Book Trust is pleased to announce the launch of Screen Lab 2009.
