Writers Groups

The Writers Groups are a simple, effective way to improve your scripts. They provide you with feedback on screenplays, outlines and works-in-progress. At each meeting, the group members give notes on a script submitted by one of the members at the previous meeting. The groups are organized geographically, meet regularly at the discretion of the group and its moderator and have between six and twelve members.

Check out the groups' Guidelines on Feedback and Etiquette.

Contact Writers Groups Director Dan Margules (dmargules@scriptwritersnetwork.org) or individual group moderators for meeting information.
