Retirement
As of June 1, 2020 I have retired from script consulting and also from doing screenwriting seminars. I am turning my attention to books and other forms of writing, but I continue to do interviews and also occasionally do a speech.
My website will remain active. I’m going to be doing blogs and posting pictures about a number of different topics. Click here to receive monthly blogs and announcements. I will send a quarterly email to the entire email list.
I will send out an email 1-3 times a year to the entire email list. No need to do anything for that list – if you received this email, you’ll receive a few every year. (Yes, you can opt out of either list at any time.)
This is my new Retirement Website. I hope you enjoy the photos and also some of the information here. And there might be some of these books that you didn’t even know I had written!

Seeking the Light
A Quaker Journey for Quakers and Non-Quakers
Many people have heard about Quakers, but know little about them. Quaker faith and practice contain many precious gems that can be adopted by anyone who is spiritual to further expand their spiritual life.
The author, Dr. Linda Seger, is a long-time Quaker who has integrated her Quaker values as a professional in the scriptwriting and film industry. This practical and accessible book deepens the faith of Quakers and introduces non-Quakers to Quaker testimonies, practices, and values.
What readers are saying:

“This book is readable, moving, and cuts through Quaker jargon. The intense explorations about the metaphors associated with the Light stun me.” ~Stanford Searl, PhD—Quaker, scholar, and author
