Proud pappa of my first screenplay contest win. American Buddha - First Place - Comedy - 7th annual StoryPros contest. I don't know what it means yet, if anything, but I'm proud nonetheless. Anyone with experience in such things?

Thank you, Philip. The win--as opposed to finalist--feels solid. "Many times a bridesmaid, never a bride" as they say.

Expand commentA friend earned a first-place prize in comedy at the Movie Deal Screenwriters Contest, and she has been seeking for a home for five years now. I recently introduced her to Stage 32 and she had her first round of four pitches via a Stage 32 pitchfest. She is more excited now about her options since finding Stage 32 than ever before because she's getting guidance from insiders. Definitely suggest that you leverage the pitchfest opportunities.
Appreciate the post and you paying it forward by inviting your friend to the community, Jon.

Expand commentAndrew, set up a reading. I realize you have a screenplay and not a play for the stage, but you still need an audience or feedback on how it's going to work. The feedback will even help you pitch it. That's the best way to see how your screenplay works--unless you can do a rough cut. I realize you will have special affects and scene descriptions as well as scenes with no dialogue, but I recently went to a reading where those were read by a talented narrator. I actually liked the idea of the narrator for the final product; the writer had included the narrator to fill in the blanks.
