Thanks for the reminder - got to Semi finals last year so will throw another one at it this year

Thanks, Anthony. I'll be throwing one in for sure.

Quoted from Matthew Taylor Thanks for the reminder - got to Semi finals last year so will throw another one at it this year

Nice one, what script was that for?

Hmm. Never entered a contest like this before. Probably just wasting my time, but I'll put something in. :)

Entered.

Quoted from Warren Nice one, what script was that for?

Confessions of a cadaver

But this contest puts shorts and features together, so it feels harsh if a short wins out over a feature knowing the effort that goes into the latter

I'll be throwing a short at it again tho, now just to decide which one lol

I tossed a full length drama in. I'm at the point with this one, I don't care if they don't like it. Ha

Ah yes, that was a good script.

Maybe the one you got Writer's Choice for? Or did you sign away the rights to the filmmaker?

Also just bumping this again so writers can see it.

Might as well enter something, you have nothing to lose.

I sold the rights to that one so can't enter it - I might choose Dialled Up since it's the only short that I have had produced.

Best of luck in comp, Warren.

Last year I think they had 13k entries, so a lot of competition lol

Thank's Anthony!

Bumping this up for anyone who hasn't seen it - deadline is the end of July

I threw in a couple of pilots just for grins, but it's interesting that the winners only get the LOGLINES of their script sent around to industry professionals.  So your script might be badass enough to take third place, but if your logline is a  bit of a clunker, it may not mean much.

A couple? you should probably ask them to remove one of them...

"Limited to one submission per person. If you submit more than one submission, you will be disqualified from the competition."

Ha! Well, at least it was free to enter!

Thanks for the reminder. I need to throw something in. Hmm.

Submitted my short horror, Here Comes The Bogeyman. ;D

The TSL free screenplay comp is back again this year.

The final deadline seems earlier than the previous years, Feb 28th.
