I feel that I am getting there, in crisply defining the plot and the main characters. - Craig Schoonover, Up and Down Again
I received your critique today and I thought it was very professionally done. It allows me to correct the changes you pointed out and I received some very high marks on marketability. This has been a very consistent comment thus far. I will continue on with the finishing process and thanks for the precise advice. - Michael Feely, The Milagro Files

I just wanted to let you know that the comments were insightful and very helpful. I'm incorporating much of it into my current rewrites. Thanks so much and please thank the readers for me. It's a great service you're providing. - Steve Talevi, It's Not a Game
Once again, excellent feedback and on time. I'm going to send all my first drafts through you guys! Keep up the great work! - Svet Rouskov, The Blue Planet

Your reputation is well deserved. You gave a thoughtful, insightful and honest review that was well worth the cost. Thank you! - Bob Heske, Rick Head

Thanks again for everything you do to make this opportunity available to us. - Iva Kapetanovic, Oliver, Olivier
Wow! Thank you for the feedback. Your insights are incredibly helpful. I'll be printing this out and going through the script to fix the easy stuff such as punctuation and formatting, and then try to tighten it up and address the character and structure issues. This has been very helpful. - L. Page Hamilton, Bone Crunchers
I simply want to thank you for the wonderful honor (honorable mention) and for the efforts you are making on my behalf. I am in the process of revising my script per the excellent feedback I received, and hope to make myself one of your success stories. - Dan Levinson, Dental School

This was extremely detailed and more thorough than I expected. I am very glad to have these notes for future rewrites. Thanks again! - Laqueta Lewis, A King James Story

I am truly impressed by what a thorough and comprehensive job you do. This is the only useful, considered feedback I've ever received. I will never submit another script to anyone until you've seen it first. And what a bargain! - Mark Layne, Coming Clean
This is to thank the readers at Script Savvy for their excellent coverage of my screenplay. I agree with everything they said, and am now in a position to embark on a rewrite with a renewed sense of purpose and confidence. - Mark Brown, Jesuit
I just want to thank Script Savvy for this feedback. It is thoughtfully written, very direct and provides an excellent analysis of my story. The time and care put into every script really shows! The fact that it is entered into a contest is a bonus, but the feedback is the real prize! - Svet Rouskov, A Spring Upon Her Cable
We just wanted to thank you for the excellent feedback. We've been trying to get some advice addressing specifics and this feedback offers some breakthrough insights for us. We have enjoyed the highly competitive nature of your contest, and now have even more faith in the judges who review the material. - Dennis Douda & Joe Berglove, Knockers
What struck me about the feedback is how close we really are with this script. That gives a writer hope when you know you're on the right track. The suggestions are all well-taken. Thank you so much. This was well worth the money. Our agent is also very pleased and believes that we now have a winner, and we can step up our marketing campaign. Sometimes you just need an impartial read to tell you what's working and what's not. - Mary Kay LaBrie, Harry and Beano
Thank you very much for the feedback on my script. I've had a chance to correct many of the problems your readers identified. Your Directory of Screenwriter Agents and Managers is exactly what I need to go forward with my plans for the New Year. - Cash Anthony, Ninth Lord of the Night
Thank you so much for the great feedback. It was both encouraging and thought provoking. This has been a great, positive experience and I will recommend you to all the struggling writers I know. - Ruth Johnson, To the Ice

This is an intelligent, clear critique. Well done. Thank you! - Paul Myerberg, Rescue
I just received feedback on my two scripts and wanted to send a big thank you to the readers for their very helpful suggestions. I was very encouraged by the readers' comments. It's clear they read the screenplays carefully and their suggestions were all positive and constructive. - Guy Winch, SoleMates and The Lamb
Thanks for all the script requests for my finalist script The Paper Route. I've gotten fewer requests from contests I've won! - Danny Howell, The Paper Route and Visions
Your contest follows through, and I'm very happy to go on record as saying so. This contest has gotten me by FAR the most requests since the Nicholls Fellowships. - Anita Jean Justice (winner 2007), Mine
Thank you for the feedback on my script. I was very impressed with the level of coverage and the quality of the comments. Of course I agree with the high marks! But I even agreed with the negatives and found them very insightful. This is very helpful and will guide me in my rewrites. Kudos to you and your readers. - Tom Patrick, Black Sun
I really appreciate the time and consideration that obviously went into the comments that I received. Keep up the good work - we need more contests like this. - Lise Bennett, En el Nombre de Dios
Thank you so much for the informative feedback. I not only learned something but felt inspired by the intelligent insight! - Michele Wong, The Principle of Uncertainty According to Hal Bruno
I'd like to thank you for your wonderful feedback. The screenplay I entered to your contest was the first script I had ever written. Your feedback has given me the courage and confidence to pursue the goal of being a professional writer. - Farhan Arshad, Prodigy:From A to Z to F to A
Script Savvy is wonderful at promoting winning scripts to producers. This contest is a quality springboard to getting your script read by the right people. - Kenneth Shelden, The Playwright
Excellent, thoughtful, detailed feedback (with scores) from two readers (combined). At last, evidence that my screenplay was actually read from FADE IN to FADE OUT. The comments are succinct and get straight to the heart of the matter. They don't hesitate to suggest areas which need attention, but they don't tell you to write a different screenplay. The readers suggested two particular quick changes which I had already made, based on similar comments from A Feeding Frenzy. The fact that I got the same suggestions from readers at two contests doubles their credibility. I highly recommend this contest. It's worth the entry fee just for the highly professional feedback. - Terry Frazier, Blue Ground
Script Savvy is helping screenwriters evolve into better screenwriters. - Julio Torres, Living Love
This contest is excellent. I received extremely helpful, thoughtful and supportive comments on my script, which won an Honorable Mention. The judges took the time to understand the vision and dynamics of my script. They made incisive suggestions on how to improve the script itself, as well as its marketability. I would highly recommend this contest to any screenwriter. - Reggie Littlejohn, Pearls of China
I never knew there could be so much personal caring in this industry. Besides receiving extremely helpful comments on the script's strengths and weaknesses, I received encouragement. - Haik Hakobian, Getting the Business
All I can say is WOW. They were a day early in their results! Unheard of! I would recommend this contest 100%. The feedback was on target and encouraging words go a long way for a struggling screenwriter! Thanks Script Savvy! - Maryann Beckman, Winnerman (co author Susan Skalinski)
The coordinators should be commended for doing an excellent job with this contest. They announced results early and promptly delivered feedback. The comments I received were very helpful. I could tell the readers "got" my script, even though it is not "high concept." And to top all that, I've already received requests to read my script. I highly recommend this contest. - Steven Knox, In the Lion's Den
This was an extremely worthwhile contest. The prizes were significant, and they were delivered in a timely matter. The notification was on time (actually, it was even a day ahead!) Most importantly, the contest coordinator was very kind and seemed genuinely interested in helping me and the other winners promote our scripts. I am VERY glad I entered Script Savvy. - Mike McGeever, Smilers
I usually cringe when I see competition feedback in the subject line of an e-mail. My feedback experience has been rather bleak, i.e., "Slash and mutilate" and call it constructive criticism. Script Savvy gave encouraging, pragmatic feedback. I'd recommend this contest heartily. - Susan Burns, Fanta Se
I'm greatly heartened by these notes and can't tell you how much I appreciate this thoughtful and incredibly helpful feedback. I have no doubt that this will help my work advance to the next level, and hopefully place higher in the future. - Tim Hall, Club It Up
This is an excellent contest. I'm very impressed with the feedback. I've received some very helpful information. Thank you again. - Barbara Frances, Saving Grace
Just reviewed the feedback and I think it's dead-on - very much in sync with comments I've gotten from other folks in the business. Great work by your readers. - Ben Jones, Last One Out
Thanks so much for your feedback. It is exactly what I wanted to hear from professionals. It's nice to know the weaknesses of what we do as writers so we can strive to improve our work. It was an eye-opener and very helpful. - John Flynt, Esperancia
