Where to #ScriptChat

We now have two options to participate in #ScriptChat! 

X: #ScriptChat (almost) every Sunday 5pm PT (8pm ET)

BlueSky: #ScriptChat the first Friday of every month, 5pm PT (8pm ET)

ScriptChat was created in 2009 for the purpose of bringing new and seasoned screenwriters together to network, improve their writing, learn about the industry, and support one another both during and after our one-hour Twitter chat. Every week, we have a new topic, oftentimes with an honored guest from the screenwriting/filmmaking world.

Our mission is to provide a platform for our screenwriting community to engage in discussions in a positive environment, whether it be by asking questions of our guests or exchanging ideas on a given topic. What we are not is a straight-up interview site. Our moderators purposely sit back to let the community ask questions, giving them full access to experts, professional writers, executives, etc. Why? Because this is a community not a dictatorship. All we ask (and demand) is to respect our community spirit and each other. 

ScriptChat brings the guests to the party so you can learn in a free, unbiased and respectful platform. Our #1 goal is to thoroughly enjoy spending an hour together every Sunday with writers working hard to improve and succeed, and we are proud to have accomplished that time and time again!

Co-Founder and Moderator: Jeanne Veillette Bowerman, @jeannevb

ARE THERE RULES?

There's one basic rule: Don't be a jerk. We're all here to learn and connect, so be kind and courteous. It goes a long way.

(When we have a guest on, it does not mean we endorse them or their products. Do your research.)
