Script Frenzy 2011

Fancy a challenge for the month of April?

The annual Script Frenzy kicks off on the 1st of April (it’s no joke!), and the aim is to write 100 pages of original scripted material during the 30 days of April. (Screenplays, stage plays, TV shows, short films, and graphic novels are all considered.)

Writers can join the web site, find other writers who are striving toward the same goal and thus encourage one other. Script Frenzy is a donation-funded non-profit and doesn’t charge a fee for participation.

There are also no valuable prizes awarded or “best” scripts singled out. Every writer who completes the goal of 100 pages gains the satisfaction of finishing his or her project within the parameters and on deadline.

Yes, this is brought to you by the same folks who created NaNoWriMo.

I’ll be taking part as I have two comic book scripts and a short film script I need to complete. That won’t get me up to 100 pages, but I’m going to also work on a couple of short stories, and some project pitches.

I should hit the 100 page mark – well, as long as Easter doesn’t scupper my plans.
