I’m friends with the folks at Shore Scripts; It’s the reason you’ve seen posts from time-to-time promoting their contest. They were originally out of the U.K., which, in terms of the contests that regularly get promoted (Nicholl Fellowship, AFF, etc), is a rarity. Now they have offices in Los Angeles. That alone doesn’t make them better or worse than the rest. Like anybody else, take a look at who’s behind them and the success stories. For what it’s worth, they come with my recommendation. Here are this year’s contest deadlines and prices:
