On Your Mark...Get Set...Write!
This year’s Script Frenzy—the screenwriter cousin of National Novel Writing Month—is in April. That’s right 30 days, 100 pages, and a completed screenplay at the Finish Line.
The point of Script Frenzy is productivity. The math is simple: If you write moving forward, with a page-count goal, you end up with a finished product. The website—Script Frenzy—offers message boards, announcements of local write-ins, resources, and other motivating fare.
Script Frenzy is a donation-funded nonprofit, and there is no fee to participate. The only prize, which is awarded to all who finish, is a Script Frenzy Winner's Certificate and web icon. The best prize? A completed screenplay. Whoo hoo!
According to the site, here are the 5 Basic Rules of Script Frenzy:
