Applications are now open for the Masters in Scriptwriting course at the International Institute of Modern Letters in Wellington. Described as "life-changing" by one writer, the course is directed by award-winning screenwriter and playwright Ken Duncum. A couple of points worth noting: an undergraduate degree is not always necessary if the applicant has sufficient experience. Relocation to Wellington is not always necessary either. In the last few years there have been a number of writers who managed to make a commute for two days a week from around the country to Wellington.
Applications for this one-year course close on 1 November, 2018.
