Screenwriting Critique Board moved to SYW

The subject line says it all! In order to give posted pages, loglines, treatments, etc. some degree of privacy from the public eye, the critique sub-forum has been moved to the password-protected Share Your Work forum.

If you look at the main message board index you'll see the SYW password (just to save you time, it's currently vista). Once you sign into Share Your Work you'll see the renamed Screenwriting sub-forum.

There's also a brand new Plays, Radio Scripts sub-forum for playwrights and radio play writers. I'll post a stick in the Playwriting forum to this effect.

Edit: just a thought -- everyone has probably figured this out already, but I'll mention it anyway -- if you add each of the individual AW forums that you visit regularly to your browser's favorite places list, you can navigate back and forth between them fast and easy. I've got my 5 most-visited AW forums at the top of my list, click-click and I'm wherever I want to be.

As the days go by, we face the increasing inevitability that we are alone in a godless, uninhabited, hostile and meaningless universe. Still, you've got to laugh, haven't you?

Yeah I know. It's a trade-off, minor navigation inconvenience vs. security and peace of mind.

By all means feel free to take a look, and comment on material if you feel you have something to say. Password is vista (for everything in Share Your Work).

Straight answer, it's not secure. Any AW member who signs in can see what's in the critique forum. All we can offer, as mentioned above, is "some degree of privacy from the public eye"

Most writing boards password their WIP areas so authors' first rights are protected -- some editors refuse to publish material that has already appeared on any public web site, since they regard it as already having been published. I don't know if this matters for script pages. But I kinda like not having everybody and his dog being able to view my first pass stuff.

After posting pages for critique, author can of course edit his/her original message to remove said pages, or request the thread be deleted. So exposure needn't last forever, just until author has got feedback to work with.
