It’s officially the winter holiday season!

To get in the spirit, create a Hallmarkesque script for a cheesy holiday film.

Put on your creative director’s hat and develop a script that embraces (or rejects) all the classic elements — snowy small towns, unexpected romance, family gatherings, and the magic of the season.

Submit your response by Dec 3, 2023 by emailing it directly to info@adirondackcenterforwriting.org. You may copy your text into the body of an email or attach it in a word document. All creative writing responses will be shared on @adkctr4writing and adirondackcenterforwriting.org. Note: You are expected to edit your own submission before sending it.
