Your (script’s) chance to shine!

Have you got a screenplay or TV script that you want the world to know about, but been having trouble in making that happen?

Have I got some good news for you.

One of my main objectives in doing this blog has been to help out other writers however I can. While I can’t connect you with the decision-making muckety-mucks in the industry, what I CAN do is help you spread the word about your script – maybe even that it gets the attention of one of those muckety-mucks.

That’s right, it’s time once again for The Maximum Z Script Showcase! (Winter ’24 edition)

Even better – IT’S FREE. Won’t cost you a thing. Not one hard-earned buck. Not one thin dime. Not one plugged nickel. Not even one red cent.

Starting today through Thursday, December 5, you send in the details about your script, and then on Friday, December 6, a list with all the scripts will be posted. A link to that list will be posted on various social media platforms. If your script is included and you want people to know about it, then you can also copy-and-paste the link and post it on your platforms.

Here’s the Winter ’23 edition to give you an idea of what it looks like.

The more eyes we can get on this, the better.

“But what if somebody wants to read my script?” you might ask. Great question. Each writer’s email is included in the details they send in, so if a script catches somebody’s attention and they want to read it, they can contact the writer directly. Win-win.

Here’s how it works:

Email the following info here with the subject line “Maximum Z Winter ’24 Script Showcase”

-Film or TV

-Title

-Writer(s)

-Genre(s)

-Logline

-Awards (if applicable) – limit of 5

-your email

That’s it.

And here are two very important details to keep in mind:

-ONLY ONE SCRIPT PER PERSON

and

-DO NOT SEND THE SCRIPT!!

Previously-listed scripts are okay, but new scripts are encouraged.

Also highly recommended – PROOFREAD YOUR EMAIL BEFORE SENDING!! Is all the info correct? Any typos? I’ve received more than a few over the years that could have used a good edit. How it’s written in your email is how it’ll be listed in the post.

Once again – the window to send in is between right now and Thursday, December 5. Occasional reminders will be posted during that time, so don’t delay and send it straightaway.

Looking forward to seeing what you’ve all got.
