We've had so many requests from members and visitors asking us to read their scripts and offer our professional analysis at an affordable rate that we have finally decided to offer Agency Coverage.
Offering a service like this to our members required time and consideration because professional coverage is one of the most important links in the process of getting your script made into a movie; and we were only willing to offer this if we could do it at the highest levels of the profession.
That is why we are so pleased that Candace Kearns has joined our team at Screenwriters Online.

Hollywood. She is accurate, solid, market-savvy, thorough, helpful,
insightful, and exceptionally experienced. For years, she was story analyst for the powerful ICM agent,
Ed Limato, whose client list reads like the who's who of Hollywood stars.
Her own client list has included Meg Ryan, Melanie Griffith, Anthony Hopkins, Richard Gere, Michelle Pfieffer, Marlon Brando among other production companies and agencies.

A NOTE TO OUR MEMBERS
It is our hope that by offering you the opportunity to have
your script given Agency Coverage by a highly respected
analyst, whose opinion is sought after by the best actors,
agents and studio executives in this business, we will be
bringing each of you that much closer to fulfilling your
dream of becoming a successful professional screenwriter.
In terms of money, this may be the best investment you can
make in your career: to get a real player to give a full
evaluation of your script the way any major screenwriter's
script would be evaluated and to know your weakness and your
strengths is a priceless piece of information. Hollywood may
be mythical in many respects but it operates on the bottom
line. If someone is going to buy your screenplay for
$250,000 they're going to want to know they've got the
goods and this is one way of your knowing whether you've got
it.
New screenwriters hit it big all
the time.
