The Book Adaptation Boot Camp was exactly what I needed when I needed it! Though I've been a published writer for 52 years, I've never taken a screenplay class of any kind. Paula's offering was just the perfect amount of information I needed to feel empowered to adapt my 2nd young adult novel to screenplay. The best part? I got to do the whole thing in my home office in one week, have downloaded screenwriting software, and am on my way. Thank you, Paula! I really loved the class and look forward to the mentoring class moving forward!

Thanks for a great week, Paula! I enjoyed the sessions immensely and am looking forward to putting all the information you gave us into action. The Book Adaptation Boot Camp was very motivational and inspirational.

Thank you once again for such an informative and jam-packed week. Your enthusiasm was infectious, and I can't wait to get started on my project. I really loved the Book Adaptation Boot Camp and it's certainly given me loads of things to think about. I'm filled with equal measures of excitement and trepidation (can I really do this?). Using the tools and knowledge from your classes will inspire me to keep going." Angela Lambourne

The Book Adaptation Boot Camp has been a fabulous course, and I’m full of enthusiasm to adapt at least one of my novels to a film, and another to a TV series. Thank you so much.

Am so enjoying the Book Adaptation Bootcamp sessions with all the practical info, and also the energy and drive that you radiate.

A fantastically informative Book Adaptation Boot Camp. Feeling a mix of awe, trepidation and excitement. Thank you for another inspirational and thought-provoking session.

A writing retreat, like Secret World Retreat, gives writers and authors the quiet needed to create characters and plot in a natural space and rustic landscape of exceptional beauty! Highly recommended.

Secret World Writing Retreat is the most peaceful and tranquil place to spend time writing that I've ever come across.

I needed to get my next book finished and Secret World Writing Retreat was the perfect place with complete peace and quiet, with only birds, pets and the occasional horse in the distance. Want to increase your word count per day? On this writing retreat I was fully inspired and quickly got up to speed with my novel.
