Writer Success

I cannot recommend submitting work to the Stowe Story Labs enough. No matter your placement status, the community present at the Labs was worth its weight in gold, for the professional advice, screenwriting craft work, educational materials, and - perhaps most strikingly for me - the genuine peer group I met and have stayed in active contact with since my (remote) time at Stowe. Very much worth the price of submission.

This is a first-class experience. The communication from start to finish is outstanding and the people running the program are friendly, helpful and concerned that you have a good experience. It’s one of the best “competition” experiences I’ve had.

Stowe Story Labs was an amazing experience. The Stowe team is knowledgeable, organized, and really helps you dive deeply into your creative work. I learned a lot in the Narrative Lab and got to meet so many peers from around the world as well as connect with industry professionals. My peer-to-peer small group was picked perfectly for me to be a part of and we've stayed in contact after the lab ended. Truly can't say enough good things about Stowe and I'm honored to be the ISA 2021 Narrative Labe Fellow.
