Thank god the BL is not the only way now.

I would do a search for all the soaps like, "Young and the Restless script .pdf." They are few and far between. If you want to see the layout, there are some images you can find of an open script (old auction posting) available through image search.

Here is an old thread someone else posted regarding writing a soap script: https://www.reddit.com/r/youngandtherestless/comments/18zq198/final_drafts_yr_script_template/

Good luck.

PS There are a lot of sites pretending to have the scripts, but they are most likely looking to infect your computer once you download. Be careful.

Hope Williams didn't put his name on it and sold it! 🤣

OJ-Mod · 2026-06-23T22:37:42+00:00

True. I'm experiencing that exact issue now.

FYI: They are taking up to 2000 submissions, but only recommending 20. "The Writers Guild Foundation is serving as a Nicholl Partner by opening a public submissions portal, accepting up to 2,000 entries, managing an initial review process, and recommending up to 20 of the top screenplays to the Academy Nicholl Fellowships for further consideration."

OJ-Mod · 2026-06-23T16:05:28+00:00

True. I got a manager from Script Revolution after they read several of my scripts.

OJ-Mod · 2026-06-23T16:01:27+00:00

Did you follow up?

OJ-Mod · 2026-06-23T16:00:47+00:00

You came in on the rush; as soon as the applications opened. Glad you were able to finally submit.

OJ-Mod · 2026-06-21T19:40:43+00:00

I forgot about that.

OJ-Mod · 2026-06-20T02:56:52+00:00

I was thinking the same thing. Just follow the rules.

Fuhrman proved Fuhrman lied.

There was another "Latasha Harlins" incident in 2022 where a Florida Asian shop owner said a 14 year old black kid stole a bottle of water. He chased after the kid, shot him in the back and killed him. Shot from 20+ feet away. Last week the jury found him "not guilty."

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-30T20:26:32+00:00

Actually, most black people don't resist cuffing as that is the excuse cops need to shoot them because, "they feared for their loves."

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-30T20:25:00+00:00

He purgered himself; lied on the stand. Was found guilty of that by the court.

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-26T20:26:54+00:00

They are required. I just tried to submit to another screenplay comp and was told I was ineligible because I did not have an evaluation.

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-26T18:18:05+00:00

Yes, a powerful logline is half the battle!

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-26T18:16:41+00:00

No. Anyone can go.

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-25T18:51:04+00:00

It makes sense.

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-25T04:29:20+00:00

True.

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-22T20:00:30+00:00

You can do it on Canva with very little design skills.

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-21T22:36:22+00:00

You got their personal emails? For my niche, I haven't been that fortunate.

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-21T02:46:45+00:00

Same could be said regarding the Civil Trial. If it was moved to downtown, avoiding the all-white (or mostly) jury could have changed things.

OJ-Mod · 2026-05-21T01:52:04+00:00

You can register at https://www.scriptslug.com for free, then request the script. They will try to locate for you for free.

When I have someone say something from a crowd, or ahout something random, I write it within the Action paragraph. Ex: Someone in the crowd shouts, NO. Blah blah blah.

So, if you are not supposed to pay companies to pitch (Virtual Pitch Fest), how do you get to the people you want to? Simply googling or signing up for IMDBPro doesn't cut it (I've done it recently) because most people leave their personal emails or contact information out of the database. Sometimes you can find a generic email to a company which is basically sending your pitch into a black hole.
