Questioning the legitimacy of screenwriting competitions, sharing the red flags to look out for, and revealing what really happens if you win one.

I share real stories about winning a competition, entering a competition, and another story about a possible CULT that tried to suck me in through winning a screenplay contest.

It’s scary out there, but I share everything to look out for in this episode!

As usual, Medium friends, you can only support me at the moment by playing my video fully, giving it a like, OR listening to the podcast on Spotify & Apple Podcast, and giving it a 5 STAR review.

Thank you! ❤
