Researching Female Screenwriters

Irish Female Screenwriters wanted for Thesis research

I'm currently studying for an M.A. in Womens Studies at UCC and for my thesis I'm researching FEMALE SCREENWRITERS.

If you could take the time to fill out the survey at the following link, i would sincerely appreciate it: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Z6CW56C

I am interested in learning about female screenwriter's working habits as well as the influences that have shaped their characters and storylines. I am interested in learning about how women screenwriters are treated within the industry and if there is room for new narrative structures in a patriarchal industry.

Female screenwriters have been completely overlooked by academic circles and I am hoping that my research will provide us with a genuine insight into the lives of female screenwriter's today.

If you are interested in being interviewed or contributing to my research, please contact me at: nicoladep@hotmail.com

I would also like to invite all Irish female writers to join the following Facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=144406858911244 which is a closed private group dedicated to allowing Irish female screenwriters to communicate with each other on a regular basis.
