The Art and Craft of screenwriting itself. Everything about the writing process, from generating ideas, story structure, how to write dialogue, how to build your ending - all the way through to how best to handle those devastating fifth draft rewrite notes. Blank page to final draft - writing and rewriting - all that entails.

For discussion of your writing. Create a new thread for your writing sample. Whole scripts down to a scene. Anything over a couple of pages should be attached as a .txt or a .pdf format file. Please keep comments constructive - it's the easiest thing in the world to shred a script - what counts is making it better. Please use common sense when posting - this is a family friendly forum. This is a lively forum, just PM for the password.

Post your completed scripts for the world to marvel at. This is your chance to impress the passing Studio Exec... Please register your script with the appropriate body BEFORE posting if you are worried about plagiarism - and please use the Workshop if the script is still a work in progress and you are looking for notes or development advice.

Details of worldwide screenwriting competitions. Some of these places are highly reputable and can lead to great things. Some are not. Just because a contest is listed in here does not mean I or the Goldmine endorse it. Please do your own due diligence before parting with any money.
