Cynosure Screenwriting Awards
**10th Anniversary**
Call for Submissions!

Cynosure Screenwriting Awards competition is celebrating 10 years of honoring screenplays that feature female and minority protagonists in bold, non-stereotypical roles. The past movie season brought some surprising stories to audiences -- but there is so much more to discover. We are looking for material that will serve as a guide to the mainstream film industry to bring more diverse stories to the screen. Two (2) $2,500 cash prizes will be awarded: one to the best screenplay showcasing a strong FEMALE PROTAGONIST and one to the best screenplay with a compelling MINORITY PROTAGONIST.

Past competition judges include industry professionals from Fox Searchlight, Showtime, The Jacobson Company, Paradigm Literary and Talent Agency, Icon Productions, New Regency Entertainment, The Steve Tisch Co., Oxygen, Jersey Films, and DiNovi Pictures, to name just a few.

If you have a winning script, one with a great role for a woman of any age, or with an untold story featuring minorities, then enter online today: www.BroadMindEnt.com .
