From Evelyn Morgan
Skookum: The Making of the Film 1 Hour Presentation


Have fun with RWA Member Lyn Morgan as we see how an independent film gets made
from script to film. As a first timer at this, Lyn will tell all from what she
calls day one of the process all the way through post production. You will learn
how things happen, the time sequence of what happens when, experience the pure
joy of this undertaking. And the sheer terror because a first timer makes
mistakes. Find out what indie filmmaking is all about.

Bio – Evelyn “Lyn” Morgan
 With eight children, ten grandchildren and six great-grandchildren, what should
an old gray granny do? Bake cookies? Babysit? Not me, though not many I know
would try what I did and begin a writing career that encompasses publication of
one true crime book, two romantic suspense novels, and a medical thriller plus
two scripts that have been made into motion pictures.

I’ve also written several more scripts and have five completed thriller and
other genre manuscripts making the rounds of editors and agents at this time.

I am a songwriter as well and an original song, THIS ROAD, was performed in the
motion picture SKOOKUM. THIS ROAD like SKOOKUM is one of the works co-written by fellow RWA member Deborah King McMartin and me.
