Is Your Script Ready? (OUR CENTENNIAL!)

from Screenwriting: From the Trenches · host Rob Hagans & Kay Tuxford

100 EPISODES! Rob & Kay have defied Vegas odds and have made it to episode 100, in which they wax poetic on the subject of "Is Your Script Ready?" Ready for what? To be sent to producers/managers/agents -- but first it's time to take a long, hard look at your script and see how it holds up against a checklist that Rob & Kay breakdown for you listeners. Thank you so much for sticking with us for 100 episodes, it really means a ton. And nothing would us happier than to make it another 100 (if not longer). Our Weekly Resource: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ This week we have TWO Resources, the first of which is the Criterion Channel– the only streamer that includes audio commentaries. Nothing like learning from the people who’ve made your favorite movies. Our second is our continuing giveaway from last week. A reminder that we have been gifted several ⁠Vomit Draft Notebooks⁠ from ⁠Impossible Kingdom⁠ and we are giving them away to our listeners! This covers three of our favorite things: we love the promotion of writing scripts by hand, we love Vomit Draft Notebooks and we love to give away free shit! And, AND, to satisfy you Team Kay Tuxford outliners out there, we are also giving away ⁠PlotFold Screenwriting Maps⁠! So, how do you get them? Well, if you rate, review, and subscribe, and email us screenshots – the receipts of doing so – you will receive a VD Notebook AND a Screenwriting Map. If you RT us on Twitter when we post this episode, you’ll be entered into a randomized generator drawing for a Screenwriting Map. And if you Quote Tweet any promotional tweet this episode, you’ll be entered into a randomized drawing for a Vomit Draft notebook. We’re so excited to do this, and have been holding it under our hats for awhile trying to make this partnership between us and Impossible Kingdom happen. We love their products and we’re so happy they decided to sponsor this giveaway and trust us with their products.
