Script Frenzy
For those who brought you National Novel Writing Month, now comes Script Frenzy!
30 days to a finished script. If you know nothing about writing scripts, and my few-days-ago prompt wasn’t enough, there are tips and essays on script writing at the website, a plot machine (with some very bizarre plots that would be a true challenge to adopt ;-), a young writer’s program, forums and some other goodies. :-)
From Chris Baty:
Thanks to Earth’s slouchy axis, NaNoWriMo’s contingent of Australian and Kiwi authors get to take part in NaNoWriMo in the summer. It’s always sounded so nice to us—warm weather, cold drinks, and a few pages of prose between laps in the pool—that we wanted to share the experience with the northern hemisphere.Which is why we’re proud to announce the birth of a second major event in the Office of Letters and Light family. Script Frenzy—in which first-time scriptwriters and old pros get together to write feature-length movies and plays in June—has launched.
Like NaNoWriMo, it’s free to participate. And also like NaNoWriMo, we’re going to spend a great, hilarious month pushing our creative limits, getting in over our heads, and churning out pages of brilliance and embarrassing drivel. In Script Frenzy, you can even write with a partner!
Do you love watching movies? Ever been moved by a play?
It’s time you wrote one. Come join the Frenzy. You can even sign into the Script Frenzy site using your NaNoWriMo username!
