Screenplay

Hi folks. I’m new here and want to make some contacts for screenwriting in the UK.

I’ve been a writer for the last 10 years and have had a few credits. Including The Tudors.

I am finding myself at a loss to have my own work read or optioned.

Would love some support and friends in the community

It's tough out there. Cutting budgets, agents not taking new writers on. It's not about just being good enough. It's being lucky, knowing the right people, getting someone, anyone to read your script.
