What Do Previous Entrants Say About Finish Line?

Kevin Morris

“I want to thank you personally for such a thorough and thoughtful analysis.  I can't imagine you're paid enough for the time and precision you put into it. That's why I want you to know how valuable your insights are as I get to the finish line. I needed validation and constructive criticism, almost line by line.”

Sean Roper

“Finish Line is by far the best script competition available to aspiring screenwriters. Having multiple opportunities to receive feedback and then submit new drafts is invaluable and unique to this competition.

I also strongly recommend the Zoom sessions with Jenny. She not only made the effort to get to know me, but she listened to my vision for the script in depth, helped me target which elements needed to improve to meet that goal, and offered insightful suggestions on how to strengthen the writing.

If you only submit to one competition next year, let this be the one.”

Suzanne Prescott

“These are really good notes. Jenny nailed it. I really appreciate her diligence in thinking about the big changes I’ve made, and giving me her best advice and thoughts. 

I am excited to delve into further notes on how to better deliver the core theme without having the extra storylines from previous drafts. I love working with you guys. “

Marco Vendramini

“Finish Line is the best screenwriting competition I’ve ever entered.
What makes it truly stand out is the quality of the feedback: every script is read thoroughly, and the comments are incredibly detailed, insightful, and constructive.


One of the most valuable aspects is that you can resubmit revised drafts based on their notes, and each time, the feedback remains just as thoughtful and helpful.


I’ve received more useful guidance here than in any screenwriting course I’ve taken.
If you’re serious about improving your writing, this competition is absolutely worth it.”

Rivers Cassedy

“These notes are amazing. Wow. SO insightful, helpful, and detailed. I have started implementing some and I am so excited to jump on the Zoom with Jenny and dive into them further. Having this opportunity made Finish Line my favorite competition.”

Colleen Burns

“As a later in life writer, I wasn’t sure if I had a chance in screenwriting world but Jenny’s encouragement and our work together on my screenplay got me a manager. And then when that manager didn’t work out, Jenny helped get me another one! I entered Finish Line in the early years and Jenny is still there for me today, answering questions, giving great advice and helping me continue to find my way with my writing and in the industry. She’s invaluable!“

James Boyd, Jr.

“Thank you! I just have to say, I have worked with contests and script consultants on this script for two years. and these notes have been by far the most detailed and helpful notes I have received.  I’m never using anywhere else for notes again.”  

John Krueger

“Thanks for the actionable, constructive notes. It was a first draft and I needed to get some feedback to begin the rewriting process. What I love about Finish Line is that I can resubmit for free. I’ve never seen that before a on top of the excellent notes it makes this a very appealing place to spend some money.”
