The amount of personal growth and education I received on the art of screenwriting has grown in leaps and bounds with my involvement with Jacob Krueger Studio. The two classes I enrolled in and the weekly Quarantini Writing Exercise Happy Hours have helped me understand as well as rehearse the bones of this craft. Jacob and his team are brilliant.
I'm a new writer, BRAND NEW. I've never felt out of place or lesser because I don't have experience in writing. Jacob and his instructors are so welcoming, easy to talk to, and so well versed in the craft. The classes were really easy because they were fun. I would highly recommend coaching and classes no matter your level of experience or knowledge.
I listened to his podcast for about two years before enrolling in my first class, and it was every bit as fantastic as I hoped it would be. I would say this goes beyond just a simple "educational" class/atmosphere. This was mentorship that helped growth feel organic and the community is such an amazing thing to be part of. Just try it, and you'll see what I mean.

Tarot for Writers
with Lacy Daigle
Grab a cup of tea and settle in for a weekend of digging into your subconscious by virtue of powerful writing exercises inspired by the tarot.
In this class, we are going to throw out the little white book, “LWB”, of card interpretations accompanying most tarot decks and let go of the various prescribed meanings of the cards. Tarot spreads, writing exercises and readings will help us bypass what we think we know, go beyond our egoic mind and learned practice, and tap into our unconscious and the collective unconscious of the writers who have gathered with us.
No experience reading tarot is required.
Upcoming class dates will be announced soon.
