I recently received an email from Vikas Chandra, an Indian screenwriter who recently participated in the Sundance Screenwriter’s Lab in his home country. I get a lot of emails from writers who are from outside the U.S.A. and my advice is always the same; try and find local opportunities. This is just one great example of someone who did exactly that.
