From the outside looking in, it may seem like Tinseltown isn't accessible to writers over a certain age. All the commonly discussed ways writers get their start (PA-ing, working as an assistant, etc) aren't often paths older writers are able to take. And that can be discouraging.
But don't let something like your age stop you! There are advantages to entering this career later in life, and there are opportunities that you may not have considered.
Join Roadmap's own James Moorer for this candid and eye-opening panel!
This 90-Minute Panel Will Cover:
- Your portfolio
- Making connections
- How to market yourself
- The benefit of life experience
- Live Q&A
