The Utah Screenwriters Group gets together in person at least once a month in the Salt Lake City area. We read each other's work. We discuss writing and movies. We laugh. We cry. We go home happy.

You do not need to be a member to post a message to our group. We welcome announcements from non-members if they are on-topic. If you would like to post a message that would be of interest to our members, please email your posting to utahscreenwriters@yahoogroups.com

For the most up-to-date information and meeting times, please visit our Facebook Page. Although there is occasionally some conversation in this Yahoo group, most of the group activity has migrated over to FB.

Don't get it right, get it written.  ~James Thurber

Best advice I've ever received: Finish  ~Peter Mayle

The bad novelist constructs his characters; he directs them and makes them speak. The true novelist listens to them and watches them act; he hears their voices even before he knows them.  ~Andre Gide

Make your characters want something right away even if it's only a glass of water. Characters paralyzed by the meaninglessness of modern life still have to drink water from time to time.  ~Kurt Vonnegut
