Hey All,
If you happen to be looking for a manager, I recently interviewed two of them for my podcast and at the end of their respective interviews, both managers mentioned they would be happy to read queries and questions from Scripts & Scribes listeners. Theyβre both legit managers with...

We've been hard at work on the third season of the Scripts & Scribes podcast and have some new ones up!

Yes and no.
The problem with trying to write with current trends is, they can often be over before you go to market with your own.
That being said, doing a little research isn't a bad idea, but in my opinion, the best writing will come from a story that you truly want to tell, not that is...
Sorry I don't have any THE WALKING DEAD scripts for you, but I wanted to interject.
THE WALKING DEAD is adapted from a comic book by Robert Kirkman. The original writer who developed it in 2010 is Frank Darabont. Darabont was nominated for his first Oscar in 1994 for THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION...

80-90 is light. Might be ok...
I like Stephanie Palmer and she generally has good information and advice.
But I disagree that querying is useless. I have spoken with and interviewed dozens of managers and they all sometimes look at queries (less so agents). Is it a long shot? Yes. Do you increase your odds by winning the...
We only list the readers that we get a ton of recommendations for the benefit of our readers (the writers themselves). We don't sell or offer any of their services. Their prices and resume are listed on the site for convenience. You would need to contact them directly to inquire their...
You've gotten a lot of responses (of which I'm not going to read all of them before commenting) so you've obviously touched on something here.
What I will say is:
1) Yes, the odds of success are low. But if someone has a passion for it, who am I to stop them? And if they truly do have a...
I have a few readers listed on my site that get great feedback from our readers.

We don't get paid to endorse them at all. They are simply the best referrals from other screenwriters we know. They're all independent and not...
In today's marketplace, you should write a spec script because you have a passion for screenwriting and a story that you feel needs to be told. You shouldn't write a spec with the sole intention of selling it as you'll likely be disappointed if it doesn't (and most don't).
While I certainly...
