screenwriting competitions deadlines

There are different levels of screenwriting competitions deadlines.  Some save you some money for turning in your script early.  Almost all charge extra for mailing in your script at the last minute.  So while exact deadline dates may vary, the cost to you depends on how soon you can turn in your script.

Most competitions have a website and you can look up their deadlines.

A book that is helpful is Erik Joseph's How To Enter Screenplay Contests And Win!  The book doesn't always list the deadlines, but it does give you website addresses where you can look up contest dates of when to turn in your script.  It's best to visit the competition website to get the most up to date information.

Here is a small list of competitions.  Visit their sites for more information on deadlines.
