About
ScreenwritingCommunity.net

ScreenwritingCommunity.net was created by Bill Donovan, who saw a need to connect aspiring screenwriters with the services you need to succeed.

ScreenwritingCommunity.net is the online headquarters for Bill’s screenwriting help books, screenplay and teleplay story analysis services, and a coming proofreading service.

It gives other providers of screenwriting services and products ways to connect with screenwriters. 

About
Bill Donovan

Editor and Manager

Bill Donovan is the former editor and publisher of Creative Screenwriting Magazine, former executive producer of the Screenwriting Expo, the former manager of two annual screenplay contests, a scene-writing contest, and a logline contest, and the producer of 10 educational DVDs for screenwriters.

He is the author of five reference books for screenwriters, including the onetime hot-selling Sell Your Screenplay – The Directory of Producers, Agents, and Managers Who Will Look at Your Unsolicited Query or Script, with 2,000+ copies sold.

He holds a Master of Fine Arts degree in Screenwriting and Filmmaking from the University of Southern California.

He is also a former news reporter and editor with the Associated Press, daily newspapers, and trade journals, and won or co-won five national business journalism awards.

Two of his own spec screenplays won first prize in three student screenwriting contests at USC, and he has had agents represent his screenplays twice (but, alas, no sales).

Since 2016, Bill has provided screenplay and teleplay story analysis to screenwriters. He has provided these story services on well over 100 screenplays and teleplays.

Clients’ testimonials about his screenplay work, many of them unsolicited, can be seen on the Testimonials page of this website.
