Screenwriting Expo
First to recommend
Description
I attended the 2nd Screenwriter's Expo and loved it. Hear the top writers discuss their craft, and so many instructive seminars, you'll wish you could be in several places at once. My favorite, though, is the Writing Tournament. A roomful of writers are given a topic, and 90 minutes to write it. The finalists have their short scripts read by actors to an auditorium packed with thousands of fellow-writers. What a rush! To try it out, download the story prompts from past Expos, and see how you do.
