Heidi's Blog
Getting nowhere with screenplay contests and coverage?
“As a long-time coach and contest judge, I can tell on the first page if a script is going to be an engaging or painful read. We created PageCraft to help you solve your script’s problems or avoid them in the first place. Many of our clients have gone on to find representation, win contests, and become working writers. Let us help you unlock the potential of your writing and craft a script that judges and executives can’t put down.”
