"Mention the Bridport Prize and the eyes of writers everywhere light up. It's not just the money - though that's not to be sneezed at - it's a prize really worth fighting for in terms of prestige and genuine literary accomplishment"

Fay Weldon CBE, Honorary Patron of the Bridport Prize
Our mission
The mission of the Bridport Prize is to encourage emerging writers and promote literary excellence through its competition structure.

The Bridport Prize was founded by Bridport Arts Centre in 1973 and has steadily grown in stature and prestige. Right from the start the competition attracted entries from all parts of the UK and from overseas.
Over £18,000 in prize money
One of the richest writing competitions in the UK, the Bridport Prize is open to all nationalities aged 16 years and over.

The poem and short story categories each have a first prize of £5,000, second prize £1,000 and third prize £500. An additional ten highly commended prizes (for each category) of £100 each are awarded. All 13 winning entries in both categories are published in the anthology each year.

A new category for flash fiction with a prize of £1,000 was launched in 2010. There is a second prize of £500, 3rd prize of £250 and three highly commended prizes of £100. The six winning entries are published in the anthology each year.

In 2014 the Peggy Chapman-Andrews first novel award, named after the Prize's founder, was launched. The first prize is £1,000 plus a up to a year's mentoring from The Literary Consultancy through their Chapter & Verse scheme. A runner-up prize of £500 is also offered. Three shortlisted writers will receive £100. The opening chapters from the winning novel and the runner-up novel will be published on the website.

The Dorset Award is a prize specifically for Dorset writers. Thanks to the sponsorship of The Book Shop of Bridport, £100 is awarded to the highest placed Dorset writer in the Bridport Prize each year.

In 2016, WriteMovies introduced a special UK Screenwriting Competition as a way to help promote and develop writers within the British film and television industry. For a competition that only had its inception a few months before, we received many entries of a high quality. To everyone who entered, thank you and well done, but there can only be one winner...

Congratulations to Phillip Ramati for winning the UK contest with his script MADAME CAVELL. It was a tough decision, but ultimately MADAME CAVELL and Phillip deserved to win. Phillip now receives a cash prize of £500, a year of free script development and mentoring worth over $3,200, and potential representation within the British industry to studios, producers, and commissioners. CLICK HERE to read more about him and the winning script, which we have already pitched in person to BBC Films, Bankside Films and the BFI.
Congratulations also go out to our Runners-Up:

Mark Flood for BITING THE BULLET

Nicholas Horwood for THE DENMARK,

and Persephone Vandegrift for DEATH OF A MORTAL WOMAN.

These scripts that ran MADAME CAVELL right down to the wire and could have been winners in their own right: though we never promised this originally, we may choose to offer a year of free script development on these scripts to all of those finalists too.

Finally, a shout out to our Semi-Finalists, whose scripts we also really enjoyed:

Nick Amatuzio for RECTO AND DELILAH (or BEFORE THE CUT),

Nicholas Horwood for LANDFILL,

Baljinder Singh Gill & Simon Birks for STICK IN THE SAND,

Sean-Paul Thomas for THE OLD MAN AND THE PRINCESS,

Anthony Etherington for EUROPIA,

Nicholas Boocock for HENRY THE NINTH,

and Jens Frederik Otto for D-DAY.

Once again, thank you to all who entered and congratulations, once more, to Philip Ramati. CLICK HERE to read more about him and the winning script, which we have already pitched in person to BBC Films, Bankside Films and the BFI.

We are now open for the 2017-18 Contest. Send us your screenplay - and make your mark in the industry

We support talented UK writers, from absolute beginners to those selling their first screenplays. By helping them develop the right skills and contacts, we help new writers to break through - so that individuals can succeed and the industry can thrive.

By entering our screenplay competition, you could:

Have your work read by 40 leading industry professionals from places like the BBC, ITV and Channel 4, and a number of literary agents

Meet with three industry figures to talk about kick-starting your career

The Screenwriting Goldmine Screenplay Contest goes from strength to strength. Now in its sixth year it offers writers a unique opportunity to have their work read by a wide cross section of the TV and Film industry. Having judged it two years running, I am looking forward to coming back again as the diversity of work submitted is a pleasure to read.

Julie Gardner MBE, co-founder Bad Wolf
We have an extraordinary judging panel, full of senior figures in the British TV industry, who all sign up to the judging panel because they have a serious interest in finding and helping develop new writers.

From writing for Casualty, having their single drama scripts optioned, even writing for major international TV co-productions, many of our previous finalists have gone on to find representation and get work in the industry.

That's due, of course to their great talent - but it's also due to the massive exposure the winning scripts get at a very senior level of the industry. This gives you a level of access that it can take years to achieve going through the usual routes. It's no exaggeration to say that even top literary agents would struggle to get a script read by so many significant figures in the same short time frame.
Interested? Then have a look through this site, and think about entering. You could become one of the many people who have started their careers with Screenwriting Goldmine.
Your first step is to find out more about what we do and who is involved.

Winning Screenwriting Goldmine has been a real door-opener - I've had two offers of representation from agents and have been invited to meetings with various production companies to discuss my ideas. Not to mention the thoughtful and generous advice along the way which has been massively helpful as I plot my next steps.

James Walker, Winner, 2016-17

To learn how to become a screenwriter, screenwriting contests are a great way to get started.

One of the best ways to get noticed by agents and managers - especially if you don't have many Hollywood connections - is by winning screenwriting contests and competitions.

Winning screenplay contests is not an automatic ticket to success, but your work is more likely to be read by potential managers, agents, and producers.

Screenwriting Contests Overview

There are at least 74 screenwriting contests (you can find them here and here), but only a small number (in my opinion) are worth entering.

If you want to enter all the screenplay contests, go for it (though this can get expensive), but I recommend that you focus on taking fewer, higher-quality shots by entering the top screenwriting contests to which industry executives pay attention.

The following screenwriting contests are a viable avenue for getting representation and breaking in (especially for those who are outside LA).

The Top Screenwriting Contests

The Academy Nicholl Fellowships in Screenwriting and Austin Screenwriting Competition are the best screenwriting contests because many agents and executives read the winning scripts.

There is a proven track record of writers who have sold scripts, gotten representation, and launched their careers based on winning these screenwriting contests.
Academy Nicholl Fellowship Deadlines for 2017:
Odds of winning (based on 2016 entries): 6915 submissions, 5 winners = 0.00071685
Austin Screenwriting Competition Deadlines for 2017:

SHORT SCREENPLAY, TELEPLAY, & DIGITAL SERIES

Why Enter Screenwriting Contests?

Screenwriting competitions are FANTASTIC motivators because of their rigid deadlines.

Lots of writers struggle with procrastination (do you?) and committing to even just one screenwriting contest deadline can be a big boost to your productivity.

"Because of the anticipated surge in submissions, we cannot guarantee access to the online application form during the last six hours before the entry deadline. - Submission Rules, Academy Nicholl Fellowship

Many people wait to submit until the final six hours of a screenwriting contest that happens once a year, so you aren't alone struggling to get projects written and submitted.

Another reason to enter the top screenwriting contests is to stay motivated. Making it to a quarterfinal or semifinal or top 25% (or however they whittle down the standings) can prove to an aspiring writer that they're doing something right.

My Advice On Screenwriting Contests

Choose a contest and a deadline. Then, submit at least one script to one of the top screenwriting contests I recommend.

If the script gets recognized in any way (i.e., it doesn't win but it makes the second round, or top 10%, etc), revise it and submit to three different contests.

If the script doesn't get recognized, then keep it in your library of projects, pick something new from your development slate, and write something else.

Instead of submitting multiple projects to several contests (which can get expensive), you only make multiple submissions when you have objective evidence that your work is good enough to have a chance to win, and you spend more of your valuable time writing new material.

That's plenty of work, I know.

And it doesn't take into account the other aspects of how to be a professional writer that have nothing to do with writing that I cover in my course (e.g., networking, pitching, selling).

But over time, if you write and submit at least one script every year to one of the best contests, you will get better and your material will get better. If you submit multiple scripts only when they have received positive feedback, your chances of being successful go up.

What Screenplay Contests Have You Entered?

Writing down a goal increases that chances that you'll complete it. Who wants to commit to entering one of these screenwriting contests? Tell me in the comments which of these screenwriting competitions you are entering.
