Donnalyn Vojta
Formerly a litigation attorney, Donnalyn Vojta decided to put away the law books and pursue her writing dream in 2016 when she wrote two magical realism novels, both traditionally published and highly rated. Her voracious love for movies, though, set her on the screenwriting path in 2018. Donnalyn is now a working screenwriter who has written feature films in horror, fantasy, psychological thriller, and crime drama genres. Moreover, three of her original scripts earned “DOUBLE RECOMMENDS” this past year (one feature and two pilots). One of those pilots is in development with Rough Diamond Productions. Donnalyn resides in Chicago with her husband and two dogs.
