NYC Screenwriters Collective

SCRIPT REVIEW, THE CRAFT, THE BUSINESS, NETWORKING. The NYC Screenwriters Collective has classes every week where we teach the craft, peer reviews scripts, network and discuss the business of Screenwriting and Film.

Our members receive discounts to many of the preeminent screenwriting seminars, courses, and writing competitions. They also enjoy invitations to screenwriting related lectures, panels, and networking events organized by the NYC Screenwriters Collective.

Our members range from beginners to pre-pro to working screenwriters. We have a steady meeting place, limit attendance to around 15, and review only feature length screenplays (WGA Registered by the author).

All are welcome!
