They canceled it and put in the 500 word short story. ------------- https://bit.ly/43TYxzl" rel="nofollow - R2 FF "Tithe" https://bit.ly/3R1z4kL" rel="nofollow - 500 Fairy/ In the Distance FB |

The bereavement is real. Have you heard of Ink 2 Screen? I just found out about it a couple months ago and wish I had sooner. It fills the void of losing Short Screenplay a little. https://www.thescriptmistress.com/ink2screen/" rel="nofollow - https://www.thescriptmistress.com/ink2screen/ ------------- https://bit.ly/3SSvZEp" rel="nofollow - Flash Final https://bit.ly/45vDa8c" rel="nofollow - 500 R2 https://bit.ly/3ZOB1Dz" rel="nofollow - Flash CH3 |

First time entering in July and I shortlisted! From my very limited experience, it looks like it's a photo prompt every month with maybe an additional requirement from time to time. I can't comment on feedback yet but I'll receive that tomorrow. Sounds like the participant numbers aren't that high - the email I received with the shortlist said that there were over 30 entries this month. So, pretty good chances. I'm just happy to have a reason to write a screenplay every month so I plan to be a regular submitter. ------------- https://bit.ly/3SSvZEp" rel="nofollow - Flash Final https://bit.ly/45vDa8c" rel="nofollow - 500 R2 https://bit.ly/3ZOB1Dz" rel="nofollow - Flash CH3 |

Sad to see the short screenplay contests jettisoned. I used to judge them and remember some great ones. |

https://www.thescriptmistress.com/ink2screen/" rel="nofollow - https://www.thescriptmistress.com/ink2screen/ If this is the same contest my friend entered, then it is judged by one woman(the one that runs the contest) in North Dakota or something - hardly the screenwriting capital of the US of A. But I could be wrong. Below is a site that displays a lot of screenplay contest sites: https://www.inktip.com/competition_directory.php" rel="nofollow - InkTip - Screenplay Contests Directory

Short Screenplay will always be near and dear to my heart. I hope they bring it back someday.  ------------- lisafoxiswriting.com My short story collection, Core Truths, is now available wherever books are sold. |

Really feeling the loss of short screenplay, it was my favourite competition ------------- https://tinyurl.com/2b5b3y97" rel="nofollow - FF CH3 https://bit.ly/43bX0Wc" rel="nofollow - SW R1 https://bit.ly/3CprYfx" rel="nofollow - All Writing |

I had a go at the short screenplay last year, wrote my first two screenplays ever, felt like I really learned a lot from it, and managed to place both times but *just* fell short of points to advance. I was really looking forward to coming back swinging this year but disappointed it was cancelled. I didn't enter the 500-word out of spite. Haha, only kidding, I love NYC Midnight. But I wish the short screenplay challenge was still here. Just when I discovered it, too! That Ink 2 contest looks good. Think I'll give it a go next month. ------------- Rhyming Story Round 1 - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hOHWYn_lOnLQ1ZEykBZJK1dir34vbBISovf_I5suHr0/edit" rel="nofollow - Start Again |

| This was also my favorite by far. The first round of the regular screenplay competition requires taking time off work to do justice to. And none of the others peak my interest. Very sad. |
