"A blessing for the writers among us: May all your dead ends be beautiful"

- Linford Detweiler

We are dedicated to providing screenwriters with feedback on scripts and script ideas, but this is also a great place to meet independent filmmakers. If you're a filmmaker looking for your next project, join us at our next meetup and hear what our writers are working on, or join us at an upcoming filmmakers meetup and participate in making a short film!

We currently have two meetups--one dedicated to script review and feedback and one dedicated to producing short films. Both meetups are open to writers and filmmakers, but in order to make the screenwriting critique as valuable as possible, I do ask that you only attend if you already understand basic screenplay structure and formatting. We do not currently offer a class on screenwriting fundamentals, but many of our local community colleges do, and there are a lot of great books out there to get you started. Once you've got the basics down, feel free to join us to workshop through your script! If you would like any suggestions on some good starter screenwriting books, click the "contact us" link on the page.  

Hope to see you soon!
