Hi all,

Just some info for anyone interested in writing a 20,000 word script
in June. If you are interested the web site will be up May 1st to
sign up, http://www.scriptfrenzy.org. I've volunteered to be ML for
Derbyshire for the event, so if you are interested you can email me
and I'll let you know the kick-off event details and other meets for
June nearer the time. Hopefully there will be enough people sign up
to it to make it worth having a Derbyshire region. My email is
sarkymoo1@...

From the current Script Frenzy site

"Script Frenzy is an international writing event in which
participants attempt the creatively daring feat of writing an
original, full-length screenplay—or stage play—in a single month.
Spurred by a wild deadline and buoyed by a community of countless
other writers, Script Frenzy participants can't be bothered with self-
doubt—or editing. They're too busy writing by the seat of their
pants, typing out beautiful, flawed stories that no one else could
have dreamt up.

As part of a donation-funded nonprofit, Script Frenzy charges no fee
to participate; there are also no valuable prizes awarded or "best"
scripts singled out. Every writer who completes the goal of 20,000
words is victorious and awe-inspiring and will get a Script Frenzy
Winner's Certificate and web icon proclaiming this fact. Even those
who fall short of the word goal will be applauded for making a heroic
attempt. Really, you have nothing to lose—except that nagging feeling
that there's a script inside you that may never get out.

The 5 Basic Rules
of Script Frenzy

----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------

1) To be crowned an official Script Frenzy winner, you must write a
script of at least 20,000 words and verify this word count on
ScriptFrenzy.org.

2) You may write individually or in teams of two. Writer teams will
have a 20,000 total word goal for their single co-written script.

3) Script writing may begin no earlier than 12:00:01 AM on June 1 and
must cease no later than 11:59:59 PM on June 30, local time.

4) You may write either a screenplay or a stage play.

5) You must, at some point, have ridiculous amounts of fun."
