TSL Workshops is a membership program offering live workshops and on-demand classes with Oscar- and Emmy-nominated writers Meg LeFauve, Lorien McKenna, Joe Forte, and other industry pros. Centered on emotional storytelling and industry-ready craft, TSL gives writers the tools, feedback, professional insight, and confidence to turn strong ideas into scripts that truly connect with audiences and the industry.
What began as weekly conversations between Meg and Lorien about the challenges and joys of writing has grown into a vibrant, global community of over 500 storytellers. Our motto, “Remember: you are not alone, keep writing!” grew out of a need to feel connected as artists who often work long hours alone. At its core, TSL Workshops is a space built on kindness and support.
Inside TSL, members join live, interactive Zoom sessions with Meg and Lorien twice a month, explore an extensive library of past workshops, and access exclusive on-demand seminars from working industry professionals. You’ll also find ad-free podcast episodes and an active community space designed for connection, encouragement, and honest creative exchange. Members receive curated opportunities as well, including grants, fellowships, contests, and festivals.
Whether you’re shaping a story, building a career, or simply trying to get through the next page, TSL is here to support you, to inspire you, and to remind you to keep writing!
