  • PJ's Script Co-operative

    Born out of Pink Zinfandel, revenge and jealousy, my lil script co-operative keeps chugging along. For a group that's been together less than a year, our members haven't done too shabby in the Two Adverbs contest. One member even secured representation---and a real rep it is, not some wannabe working out of his apartment. And with scripts that were workshopped! And they even took our suggestions, well, some of them anyway. But we're not sore. Okay, just a little.

    So for a limited time (until January 2nd), we're opening the vault to new victims, I mean, members. We want to start the new year off with a bang! If you're interested (and if you wrote me before, write me again so I know you're still interested, as I suffer from long term memory loss due to excessive eating of Munchkins), shoot me five pages. If they grab me, you're in.

            I've been a member of PJ's co-op for almost twenty-five years, and I've never had a better experience. My once dreadful F-game has now been elevated to a nasty A-game, and I can only get better, thanks to the help of fellow members. If you want to take the next step in your screenwriting career, but you're too cheap to pay anyone for help, we're here to offer encouragement and criticism in equal measure. So send in those pages for a coveted spot in PJ's Script Cooperative.

            Here are some of what some of Hollywood's elite have had to say about it:

            "PJ's Script Cooperative is the bee's knees." - Ben Hecht

            "If I could only have one group of hungry screenwriters eye-balling my work, it'd be these lovable scamps." - Charles Brackett

            "They're a swell bunch of guys and gals." - John Ford

            "Get the hell away from me you **********, and bring me another bourbon! - John Huston

            HH

            (I'll forward you the account numbers, PJ. And hurry up. Rent's due.)

              Great minds think alike.

                LOL! You forgot the quotes from Shakespeare, Hemingway, Faulkner and F. Scott Fitzgerald.

                  Yeah, but how many produced screenplays did Shakespeare ever write? None.

                  Go back to your ivory tower, Shakespeare!

                            Hey PJ

                            Just to check - should I have sent you my "best" work (i.e. as a sample) or the project I want to work on? Which is NOT my best work?

                            I sent some really early pages of something that is pretty raw, but now I'm thinking I should have sent you a sample instead - just to get through he gate.

                            (Did I mention the stuff I sent you was REALLY raw? )

                              I'm having the same dilemma. My most "finished" screenplay is the very first one I ever wrote, since I haven't been at this too long. The newer ones are in flux and the first five pages aren't very polished since I'm not even sure they'll stick.
