30. Make the fat lady sing: Give birth to your script baby

Homework

You’ve done it! We’re so proud. It’s time to start throwing your script around like you’re handing out flyers.

Get hunting

Get online and look for every damn screenwriting competition you can possibly find. Hit up networking events, and bring a copy or two of your script along in case anyone wants to make a short film, but needs a script.

Get on FilmFreeway and Withoutabox, and start hunting for anything and everything – you’ll find most of the opportunities are for short films.
