After writing Netflix’s first original Christmas movie, A Christmas Prince, which started the series, and Christmas movies for Hallmark and Lifetime, bestselling Christmas novels, and a top 10 Audible Original Christmas rom-com, I’ve been asked to teach a writing course on How to Write Christmas Movies.

While I’ve done some festive, fun, one-day events with Story Summit, the feedback we keep getting is that you wanted a more comprehensive course that takes you step by step through the process of writing a Christmas movie so when you’re done, you can have actual pages of your screenplay!
