Rev up those laptops, desktops and mellontops people, 'cause it's soon time to write, scrawl, scribble and scribe your way to 100 pages in 30 days for the ever popular, international writing event of the year... Script Frenzy 2009!!
As always, Script Frenzy is presented by the same fine crowd who also bring you NaNoWriMo. Despite cleverly coining themselves ' The Worst Scriptwriting Contest Ever ', SF continues to be a huge success, attracting thousands of new and repeat participants of all ages and abilities since its inaugural debut in 2007. And as before, the mission for SF09 challenges all participants to write 100 pages of pretty much anything during the 30 days of April. Writers can chose any type of scripted format, be it screenplays, stage plays, TV shows, short films, comic book scripts, adaptations of novels, or whatever you please.
Younger scribes are encouraged as well to put their keyboards to the test in the
Script Frenzy Young Writers Program geared toward elementary, middle and high school students.
T'is all very simple really, as no fees are required and the award is the incredible sense of pride and satisfaction that ensues once you've accomplished that 100 page goal. Those who do make the mark will receive a special winner's certificate and web icon, to boot.
