Welcome to NCS’s new blog!

This is the place where we’ll be giving you continuously updated information on the business of screenwriting and filmmaking. (You may also get a few occasional rants and ravings by me.)

But never fear, the blog will be written not only by myself, but by lots of wonderful guest writers – all of whom will hopefully, help make your career as a writer, actor, and filmmaker a little easier.

Today, I’m going to start off by listing a few links to some of the better online resources for screenwriters. If there are any websites that I’ve forgotten to add, please e-mail me at anne@norcalscreenwriters.com.

Good luck with your writing and welcome to the new NCS blog!

Best regards,
Anne Jordan
