The Chronicles of a Pretentious Writer

Opportunities
Posted on November 2nd, 2009 1 commentI finished my script for the Scotland Writes competition. I’m quite pleased with it. The First prize is £1500, second is £500 and there are up to 20 places on a 1 day seminar type thingy. Obviously the money would be nice but I’d be delighted to get one of those places. And plus I would just spend the money on sweets.
I’m also formulating a script for the stage at the moment. I love writing dialogue, and think/hope I’m alright at it. There are quite a few opportunites for Scottish based writers at the moment (check out the BBC’s Writers Room for details) I also discovered that the Traverse Theatre have an open submissions policy for scripts and run a number of writing initiatives.
Writing – it keeps me off the streets.
