Writing for big and small screens | Rosemary Lokhorst

Hello Everyone I am a writer and producer of an award-winning mobile game for young people to help them build emotional resilience so they can cope with anything from daily disappointments to major life traumas. It was a great challenge to write a storyline that is both interactive and has a wealth of psychological meaning. I am also the producer of the game. It is called Shadow's Edge and since we are a non-profit, it is available for free on the appstores. Evidence from an impact study shows it works and we are conducting a clinical study with 196 cancer patients now. This is my first production experience and it is challenging, but fun as the game is already helping over 30'000 young folks. more here: www.shadowsedge.com I also am writing screenplays. I have written a RomCom about a woman in IT (write what you know) that hacks her way to lose the love of her life before realizing the path she is on and having to undo the damage. I am now writing a drama about a young with terminal illness that unwittingly connects with a woman who has lost her daughter through suicide. I look forward to learning and connecting here and am excited to make the most out of this platform. Thank you for letting me introduce myself. #playitforward Rosemary
