What is Script Frenzy?

Script Frenzy is an international writing

of scripted material in the month of April. As part of a
donation-funded nonprofit, Script Frenzy charges no fee to participate;
there are also no valuable prizes awarded or "best" scripts singled
out. Every writer who completes the goal of 100 pages is victorious and
awe-inspiring and will receive a handsome Script Frenzy Winner's
Certificate and web icon proclaiming this fact.

Very Short Fiction Award

We are interested in reading your original, unpublished stories!
(We don't publish stories for children, I'm sorry.) Multiple
submissions are fine. (You can send more than one submission per
competition, if you like, or submit the same story for different
categories, if it qualifies). When we accept a story for publication,
we are purchasing first-publication rights. (Once we've published your
story, you are free to, for instance, include it in your own
collection.)
