Welcome Script Frenzy Participant!

 
Dear Script Frenzy Writer,

We hope you had an outstanding creative adventure this April! To help us make next year even better, we would LOVE it if you could take five minutes and fill out this survey. Your responses are anonymous, and the results will be used to guide our improvements for 2011. Having feedback from participants also helps us immensely in going after grants and other forms of funding. Thanks so much for your time!

After hitting "Done" at the end of the survey, you'll be taken to a page on the Script Frenzy site where you can enter an optional drawing for free thank-you goodies from our friends at the Writers Store! It's just our way of saying thanks for helping make Script Frenzy better!

Write on!
