Hey folks! I am so excited to launch our latest screenwriting contest! We're launching the 1st Annual Female-Driven Screenwriting Contest! The Super Early Bird Deadline is Thursday (1/13). Make sure to get your Female-Driven Features or Series in! We have already had a number of submissions! It's off the charts!
And we have a fantastic mentor - Kate Sergeant, whose credits include critically acclaimed shows CASTLE, CSI, BLINDSPOT and more!
To answer a common question - No this contest is NOT only for female writers. The projects do have to be Female-led or Female-Driven. You can find out more here:

Thanks for answering the common question, Jason Mirch. I was thinking it.

Won't be entering myself, but as someone who seems to exclusively write female-led material, good luck to all those who do!
Smart move John Austin. I too have female-driven scripts, including one in which all eight characters are female, but I won't be entering either. Obviously the winner will be a female writer. There would be an outcry otherwise.

Hi writers, just a reminder that all top 10 finalists also get their loglines and bios sent out to our extensive list of industry professionals in our contest lookbooks - the winner isn't the only one who gets the benefits of entering!
