WRITEMOVIES.COM NEWSLETTER

We are in our seventh year of helping writers find representation, to
option or sell their screenplays to major production companies. We
have also helped novelists secure publishing deals and playwrights get
produced. Out of close to three hundred "contest sites,"
WriteMovies.com is one of only a handful that has actually made a
movie from a contest winning project. Writer's Digest has twice voted
us one of the top four screenwriting sites.

We are always on the hunt for that golden project that we can help
take from page to screen. Marcus Folmar, a WriteMovies.com winner, has
experienced this level of success with I'mPerfect (aka The List),
starring Wayne Brady and Sydney Tamiia Poitier. The film is currently
in post-production and has been entered in the Sundance Film Festival.
Check out I'mPerfect at imdb.com.

-First Place Prize: $3000 in cash and guaranteed representation.
-Up to $1 Million in option monies from the A-List producers we work with.
-We will fly the winner to Los Angeles and pay for their
accommodation, so that he/she can meet with several producers, agents,
executives, managers, etc.
-We will submit the top projects to the production companies &
studios. You keep ALL the option/sales money.
-Top 3 will receive $1000 in free consulting for the winning project.
-Top 3 will receive Final Draft software.
-Outstanding novels will also be submitted to publishing houses in the
U.S. and Europe.
-Outstanding plays will also be submitted to theatres in the US and
Europe.

Plus, we will pitch the top three entries, to:
-High ranking executives at the major studios and production companies.
-A minimum of ten production companies (such as Castle Rock,
Bruckheimer Films, Scott Rudin Prods.)
-Additionally, we submit your material to non-US companies to increase
your chances of a sale.
-Plug the name and project of the winners in press releases and on the
web.

We are accepting a maximum of 1,000 entries and will close the contest
once that number has been reached. Be sure not to miss the boat.


THE WRITEMOVIES.COM WRITING CONTEST #10 IS STILL ACCEPTING ENTRIES-

while you still can. Early entry means a discount on the entry fee.

ELITE CONSULTING:

Not sure how to make your script grab that executive/producer/agent's
attention? Want to have your script read by a major studio producer
looking for new material and speak to him directly about it, one on
one? Do you have a script that just isn't getting the feedback you'd
hoped for and you don't know why?

Before you send it out, it is crucial to get feedback from a real
producer. Once a script has been exposed to the industry you are
unlikely to get a second read after a re-write. Don't waste hundreds
of hours of your time. Give your script the best chance it can have.

Try Elite Consulting, the best way to get sound advice from industry
pros who are looking for hot new projects and can launch your career.
Send your script directly to the professionals that brought you
SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE and SCARFACE just to name a few. Please visit

STUDIO ANALYST'S MANUAL:

Want to really know why you got turned down instead of hearing the
usual clichéd development flunky turn downs? Want to make sure it
doesn't happen again? Want to exponentially increase your chances of a
sale? Get the upper hand on the industry by knowing precisely how the
people who read your scripts have been trained to evaluate them.
Greatly improve your chances of a sale by knowing what is going on in
the mind of your buyer! This is the ONLY site on the net where you can
obtain the confidential. Please visit
