The Writer's Film project(WFP) offers university-trained fiction,
theater, and film writers the opportunity to begin a career in
screenwriting. Over the years, the WFP has provided more than
$800,000 in screenwriter fellowships.  This year, up to five writers
will be chosen to participate and each will receive a $20,000 stipend
to cover his or her living expenses.
 
During this twelev month program, each writer creates two original,
feature-length screenplays.  The WFP workshop meets three to five
times per week for on-going group consideration of individual
works-in-progress.  Throughout the year, workshop members are advised
by professional film writers, producers and directors.
 
Upon graduation from the program, WFP writers have been signed by
major literacy agencies and have been hired for writing assignments
and/or had screenplays acquired by studios and production companies.
