**Please Read the Updated Rules of Logline Friday**

Logline Friday is a FREE online contest to help you practice condensing your screenplay into 140 characters every Friday.

Not sure what I mean by “logline?” Check out this list of Logline Friday Winners

When will you need to write a logline? Oh, I don’t know, how about ALL THE TIME.

When someone casually asks you what you are working on, knock them out with a compelling two sentence tease and they’ll beg to read your work.

Maybe the person can help you sell your screenplay, maybe they can’t. But the more fans you have in your corner, the better off you’ll be in the long run.

And screenwriting is all about the long run.

So here are the rules:

EVERY FRIDAY post your BEST logline on Twitter. (Limit THREE per person) Be sure to throw an “@scriptdreric” in front of each one so I can find it.

(Worried about someone stealing your idea?  Sure, it could happen.  But probably won’t.  Check out Will Somone Steal My Movie Idea?)

If you need two tweets per logline, that’s fine – 280 characters is still fair game.

More comfortable emailing it? Send your loglines to: eric@scriptdoctoreric.com

Winners announced Monday right here on www.scriptdoctoreric.com

So, send over those loglines!

If you don’t win this time, you’re welcome to submit the same logline the following Friday…but you might want to spruce it up a bit.

Good luck, and…

Onward!
