April is Script Frenzy

April 1st, 2009 in Writing by Debra Eckerling

ScriptFrenzy —from the Office of Letters & Light who bring us National Novel Writing Month every November—is a scriptwriting contest with at simple challenge: Write a 100-page Screenplay in the 30 days of April. The rigid deadline prevents writers from getting bogged down with story holes, character arcs, and the formal rules of scriptwriting. An amazing thing happens when you have such a tight deadline. Story holes get filled. Characters are knocked into shape. And the script gets done.

Program Director Jennifer Arzt offers Write On! Members: Top 5 Reasons to Participate in Script Frenzy

1. No judges. No prizes. Just you and a 100-page challenge

5. Cost to join: $0. Feeling of triumph on April 30: Priceless
