Deadlines can be a good thing and may be just be what you need to motivate you to finish a script, or perhaps the chance to win cash and prizes will be an added incentive.
The 11th Annual Big Break Contest opens February 2010. With over $30,000 in prizes, check out entry fees and contest rules at www.finaldraft.com/bigbreak. Last year’s fees ranged from $40 (early bird deadline) up to $65.
