Please note HSSW’s attendance policy. Anyone seeking a review in a given semester also needs to attend at least two reviews prior to his or her own in that semester (with the exception of the first person being reviewed who must attend two thereafter). Why? Call it “Pay It Forward.” The only other exception will be authors with hardships (medical issues, family crises, financial difficulties, whatever).

Please contact Genine Tillotson at (978) 505-5652 or at genine@hsswriters.com to arrange submission of your material for review.  All materials must be submitted in electronic form, in PDF format, two weeks prior to review date.  Please proof your materials to make certain that your documents look exactly as you want the readership to see them.

In addition to a properly proofed and formatted outline, detailed treatment or script, the author must submit:

  • a mini bio
  • a logline
  • the genre of the piece
  • a hi-res photo suitable for cropping
  • author-level membership payment if not already made.

Harvard Square Script Writers recommends registering your material with the Writers Guild of America prior to review.
