Your Creative Screenwriting subscription NOW INCLUDES WriteWare—a list of more than 100 ProdCos, Agencies, and Managers who accept unsolicited query letters. And as long as you remain a subscriber, you will receive WriteWare updates 4 times a year!
Creative Screenwriting exists to help you compete in this tough, but lucrative business. Do you know which genres are hot? Which ones are warming up? Which agencies and managers are accepting new clients? What scripts individual producers are looking for, and how you can submit to them? Creative Screenwriting answers these questions for you in every issue, keeping you up to date with what's going on — who's buying, and what types of scripts are selling.
Every issue of Creative Screenwriting includes Production Company Spotlight — a listing of what scripts a dozen top production companies, management firms and agencies are looking for. And our list of Spec-Script and Pitch Sales is the most complete anywhere. Each listing includes a logline for the project and the specific agents, managers, producers and executives involved. We publish the most detailed listing anywhere because you need this information to sell your scripts.
Exclusive interviews access the knowledge of Hollywood's top writers. Creative Screenwriting puts you into the room with Christopher Nolan (Memento) to discuss screenplay structure, takes you to New York to talk with William Goldman (Adventures in the Screen Trade) about working in Hollywood from afar, and gets inside the mind of M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense) on keeping the audience guessing – interviews you won't find anywhere else. And every issue of Creative Screenwriting also includes a feature article on the craft of screenwriting where we interview top writers on what works. Recent issues have interviewed Richard LaGravenese (The Fisher King) and Neil LaBute (In the Company of Men) on Dialogue, Anthony Minghella (Cold Mountain) and Ted Tally (Silence of the Lambs) on Adaptation and Scott Frank (Get Shorty) and Ed Solomon (Men In Black) on Rewriting.
The time is right – the price is even better. Creative Screenwriting is a small investment in your career that could pay huge dividends.
