Out of 400 submissions from across the globe, your own DC District Diva’s VERY FIRST screenplay “Broken Cisterns” has been chosen as a top 10 finalist in the Rockstone Foundation \/ Black Women’s Entertainment Network Webseries Screenwriting Contest!! \u00a0I am so honored and extremely humbled!!<\/p>\n

I wrote this screenplay because I don’t see any characters on T.V. or film that deal with Black Christian women and real life issues without over-the-top caricatures and ridiculous drama. \u00a0My webseries is about real women with real issues who are really serious about living their lives for Christ but go through human struggles. \u00a0Here’s a short synopsis of “Broken Cisterns”: \u00a0” Twenty-six year old Willow Tanner is living the perfect dream: gorgeous and devoted husband, great career, good friends, enviable life — until a jarring event zaps her awake.”<\/p>\n
