As we approach the end of 2020, it’s also the end of yet another contest – it’s time to announce the winners of our Fall 2020 Screenwriting Contest! Today’s the day we award our top three with script development, pitching to industry, and more, and also give away our Grand Prize of $3500.
You frightened us with your submissions to our Horror Award, but now it’s time to see if you can tug at our heartstrings and make us laugh. Continuing our celebration of great writing across all genres, the WriteMovies Romance and Comedy Award 2021 is now OPEN!
2020 hasn’t gone the way anyone expected, but we’re determined to make the most of 2021 – and we want you to do the same. That’s why we’re launching the Winter 2021 Screenwriting Contest today, which will be open until January 31st!
With many production shoots currently limited by lockdowns and other restrictions, the best thing screenwriters can do right now is keep writing. Focus has shifted onto finding future projects for after the pandemic, with many commissioners searching for scripts for several years down the line.
So if you’ve been hard at work over the last few months – or if you’re just looking to get off to the best possible start in 2021 – this is the contest for you! The Winter 2021 Screenwriting Contest is your chance to make the new year the best it can possibly be.
The Grand Prize is $3500, and the top three scripts all receive:
The final deadline is on January 31st, but there are plenty of reasons to enter early. You get free entry when you buy one of our script reports, and once you’ve received your report, you can resubmit a new draft of your script for free! Give yourself plenty of time to redraft based on our feedback by buying as soon as possible.
So click HERE to enter the Winter 2021 Screenwriting Contest, and take your shot at making next year a great one for you and your script!
We’re here to help all writers, and we like to keep the door open for them. And we know that some writers narrowly miss out on deadlines because of other factors in their lives, and really appreciate an extra chance to get their work finished and submitted. So for these reasons, we’re announcing a 1 week extension to our Fall Screenwriting Contest!
The new deadline is October 18th. With $3500, script development, pitching to industry, and more on offer as prizes we don’t want to miss any great scripts – and we don’t want any of you to miss out!
So if you haven’t entered yet, use this extra week to polish your work. Give it one last proofread, tidy up those subplots, and make sure it’s in the best possible shape.
And then, when you’re ready – the most important thing of all, enter the Fall Screenwriting Contest before the extension closes!
The Grand Prize is $3500, and the top three scripts all receive:
We increased our Grand Prize for this contest to help writers out in these tough times, and this extension is to help you out too.
