Wednesday, Aug 26 - 🎭 Pages Due: Script Reading Workshop Bring 2- 10 new pages and hear your work come to life! Everyone who attends must bring pages and participate by reading roles in other writers' scripts. Get feedback, stay accountable, and keep moving your project forward. You can find the links to all the meetings in the Calendar tab. All meetings are optional, so come to the ones you can. For anyone new, feel free to put your screenwriting Goals in the "Success Stories and Introductions Thread", because I base future meetings on your needs. :)

Hey everyone! Working on tightening my logline for a comedy feature and would love feedback. Which one makes you most want to read the script? The title is "The Model Lisa."
