Why not?Why not?Why not?That was the question repeatedly pressed upon writer/producer Glynis Whiting by a professor as she studied to be an elementary school teacher instead of pursuing her passion in writing. Why not, indeed? When she ran out of excuses, she also ran out of the education program and into the drama program. And we are all the better for it.A “utility” player in the sports world is an athlete who can play well in many different positions on the team. The concept exists in the creative arts as well. A “triple threat” is a performer who, in addition to acting, can sing and dance as well. You might consider Glynis Whiting to be a triple threat on the other side of the camera. She is a screenwriter who became a television executive helping writers. She then began to produce and direct her own work, before coming full circle to writing. But this time – novels!In this Vancouver interview, Glynis tells you what producers look for in their search for a screenplay to develop into a film and how coaching others can be a path to improving one’s own skills in an art form or craft. She also explains how shyness in public presentations can be conquered when you believe strongly in the story you need and want to tell. It always comes back to story!“I learned that to be successful in a career in the arts, passion isn’t enough. You have to be brave!” - Glynis Whiting, producer, screenwriter, novelistSubscribe to the free Monetizing Your Creativity podcast:https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/monetizing-your-creativity/id1082894462?mt=2While you're there, please leave your comments and suggestions for future episodes.
