All About WriterAction

WriterAction is an online community and resource center of over 2000 professional screen and television writers. WriterAction is privately owned and operated. All our members are WGA members, East and west, but WriterAction is neither financed by nor affiliated with either organization, their elected officers, or staff.

WriterAction members live all across America, with a smattering elsewhere in the world. Projects written by WA members have won Oscars, Emmys, WGA awards, and even the occasional Razzie. Some WA members are among the most in-demand writers in the business; others are scrambling to get an agent/a job/a produced credit/next month's rent; others still are somewhere solidly in the middle.

Our active members include many WGA officers, Board of Directors members and Council members, East and West, as well as varied committee members.

We invite all WGA members, West and East, to join in.

Inside WA you will also find forums on all aspects of the craft and business of screen and television writing, as well as on all aspects of WGA business and politics.

We post open writing assignments and other job opportunities and articles of interest and links to information and resources; and maintain a script library and a database of evaluations of film and television executives, producers, agents, managers and showrunners, written by writers, for writers. We post notices of all WGA events, operate a Staff Q&A through which members can get specific questions directly forwarded to appropriate guild personnel, and host a monthly Spotlight interview during which a member with a currently running feature film or TV show answers questions from other members for an entire month. During the election season there are special forums for discussion with board and officer candidates. Beyond these services, there are 24/7 free-wheeling discussions on every topic under the sun, and regular face-to-face get-togethers such as Friday lunches and special events.

We invite all WGA members, West and East, to join in.

Imagine If Execs Got Report Cards

Ever wish executives got report cards? Ever wish you could check the 411 on an agent or showrunner before you took a meeting?

Well, wish no more. Once inside WriterAction, you'll find the Executive Tracking Board, where hundreds upon hundreds of producers, agents, managers, and showrunners are evaluated and graded by fellow WGA members who have worked with them.

Now you can learn who are the angels -- and the devils -- before heading off to your next meeting!
