TESTIMONIALS

"Her support made the difference

between finishing the script and giving up."

"Her knowledge of cinema history, the arts,

and popular culture emanates from world-class awareness, a quality I believe she uses to great effect in

inspiring her students to a higher level of literary achievement."

"A working

woman in the real world for many years, Ellen’s unpretentious tough-mindedness also brings art

to bear on the human condition of us all."

"I appreciated your effort to

create an environment of honesty, thoughtfulness, and comfort."

"I don't think any of the classes I've

taken have had such a powerful influence on my work. I can't

thank you enough!!"

"I find that life is short, that the most important mentors in our life may be gone before we can say hello.

You are such a great mentor to us. I look up to you as the, 'God of Writing.' 

You have inspired me in so many ways. Thanks once again for inspiring us in writing a better story, every day."

"Perhaps the most

lauded instructor we’ve hosted, several of Ellen’s student evaluations claim that her

Screenwriting course was the “Best [they] ever had.”
