About This Podcast
The Script Awards is an international script and writers competition focused on ideas, talent, and narrative structure. The script remains the core of any project, and we highlight the craft of writing and the discipline of storytelling across genres and formats.
Since 2016, the Script Awards Los Angeles has awarded close to 300 winners and selected an additional 700+ authors from around the world.
For years, we have hosted roundtables and recorded conversations with writers, authors, screenwriters, and playwrights, examining the creative process and the realities of the industry. Today, we are publishing this library online as a podcast, making years of discussions with working writers publicly accessible for the first time.
We hope this initiative will help writers gain confidence by hearing and seeing that no writing path is prewritten or the same.
This podcast channel will also serve as an additional outlet for our Writers' Interview Series, offering writers another platform to shine and share. The series features in-depth one-on-one conversations with writers discussing their craft, career paths, and approach to storytelling.
You write stories; we tell your story.
