I invite you to join 2,000 to 2,500 of your fellow screenwriters, screenwriting aspirants, studio and independent production executives, story analysts, and teachers at The 2009 Screenwriting Expo.

The Guest of Honor at this year's Expo will  be some of the most recognized names in screenwriting.  

You'll also have a chance to hear and speak to producers, agents, screenwriters with blockbuster hits and critically-acclaimed films, screenwriters  who are also national  best-seller-list novelists, and world-famous screenwriting teachers among the 100+ members of this year's faculty.

The Screenwriting Expo is the most thorough, in-depth, and intensive screenwriting education available in a  brief immersion anywhere. Everything they teach in film school about the craft, and everything they didn't tell you, is taught here.

The Expo is more than an education, however. It's an ideal opportunity to pitch your work to movie and TV producers at the Golden Pitch Tournament.

Also, the Expo Scriptwriting Competition, in addition to having one of the biggest hauls of prizes of any screenplay contest, is the only one in which winners are announced and instantly honored in front of as many as 1,000 peers, at the Expo closing ceremonies.

It's networking. We'll have fthree evening networking parties, but they're only the start. You could meet your next writing partner or a producer sitting around a table at lunch, or between sessions in the lobby of one of the two host hotels. It's seeing where the doors into the business are, and seeing them open.

It's breathing air filled with the magic of moviemaking.

It's all about you. You are the very reason they pop the popcorn. Nobody else makes a movie until the writer makes it first.

So register now, and come to the Expo Oct. 15-18, 2009 at the Wilshire Grand Hotel, 930 Wilshire blvd., Los Angeles CA 90017.

See you there!
