The purpose is that of open discussion on short stories and novels most likely at the start being 20-21st American writers but I am …

Simply put, Content Strategy is... "the practice of planning for the creation, delivery, and governance of useful usable content." - Kristina Halvorson You've heard it before - "Content is King". It's been burned into our collective conscious for the last 10 years. We get it. We need content. Why are we creating content though? Who is editing that content? Who is creating it? When are we creating the content? How often? Where is it going to publish and how is it going to be delivered? Mobile? …

This group is for people interested in writing character-driven screenplays with strong narrative values. A screenplay isn't a novel, and it's not a film. It's a tool to get a critical mass of professionals together to make a film. The stronger the story and the more human the characters, the better the screenplay. Classic narrative structure will be encouraged as a respectful basis for script critique, as will analysis of classic and current films and scripts for technique. All genres welcome!
