Re: FADE IN MAGAZINE AWARDS and the WRITERS NETWORK
yeap. kinda figured that about the contest but seeing it in writing really is a wakeup call. i imagine most of the contests out there do nothing at all other than STEAL your money. here's some off the top of my head -- american screenwriting competition, writemovies, probabably even some of the more reputable ones. what has american zoetrope and screenwriting expo etc ever done for its winners?

Re: FADE IN MAGAZINE AWARDS and the WRITERS NETWORK
Thanks for letting us know... I think it reinforces the important element of having someone in charge of the contests you enter who actually cares and takes an interest in helping the winners... Because it really all comes down to them in the end... Greg Beal at Nicholl and The Insider at trackingb seem like good examples... What other contests have people at the top you can talk to and who work hard to help you if you place?

What the hell is happening...
Can someone tell me why there are so many screenwriting contests??
What will happen in the future?
Will we see more or less screenwriting contests?You know what the news is. Now you're going to hear ... the rrrrest of the story!

Re: FADE IN MAGAZINE AWARDS and the WRITERS NETWORK
Thank you thank you very much,
stress and typing -- it's drama on its grandest scale.
I use a laptop and a deskop and an old fashion typewriter to do the damage....
I'm only applying to the top 2 screenwriting contest this year and future years.
But don't know whose the second one.

Ben, Ben, Ben...for your own sake, please take a substantial portion of the time you waste writing countless message board posts, and use it to learn correct grammar. Otherwise you will be throwing your money away on those "top two contests" and any others.
