This community runs on one rule that matters more than the rest: only I give teardown-style notes. That's not ego, it's structure. The whole model works because there's one cold, distant read, from one person, with nothing to gain either way. The second other members start piling on with their own "brutal honesty," this turns into a mob, and nobody's pages are safe to post here. So here's how it actually works. On my notes When I break down a submission, that read is mine to give. It'll be direct. It might sting. It's not personal, and it's not up for debate in the moment, the whole value is a fresh, undiluted read, not a negotiation. On your comments When you're commenting on someone else's featured breakdown: stick to what's useful, a genuine reaction, a question, a related observation. No dogpiling. If I already said the dialogue felt flat, you don't need to say it four more times. No "well actually the story is secretly great" arguments. This isn't about defending the writer or attacking my notes, it's about learning from the process. If it's not your pages being discussed, it's not your fight. On receiving notes If you're the one who got featured: you don't have to agree with anything I said, you don't even have to respond. What you don't get to do is explain your intentions after the fact to relitigate the read. The read already happened. That's the deal you signed up for when you submitted. Take what's useful, leave what isn't. That's true of any notes, from anyone, ever. General conduct No harassment, pile-ons, or personal attacks, on me, on featured writers, on anyone. Feedback on someone's pages is fair game. Feedback on someone as a person is not. Self-promo, unrelated pitching, or recruiting people to other services: keep it out of this space. Repeated violations get a warning, then a removal. I'd rather have a smaller room that's safe to submit real work into than a big one that isn't. Why this matters The entire premise of Fresh Eyes is that you can trust the read because it's fair, cold, and consistent. That trust is the product. Guard it like it's the only thing keeping this place worth showing up to, because it is.

No fluff, here's exactly how this works. What to submit Logline (1-2 sentences, no more). First 10 pages of your script. Standard screenplay format, copy-paste or PDF only. Don't send synopses, treatments, outlines, or "context so you understand what I was going for." I won't read it. That's not me being difficult, it's the entire point of Fresh Eyes. If it's not on the page, I don't know it. Where to submit Post in Submit Your Pages using the pinned template below. Submissions outside this category or in the wrong format won't be considered for that cycle. Template, copy and fill in: Title: Logline: Format: (Feature / Short / Pilot) Page count attached: Attach your PDF to the same post. Timing Cycles run every 2 weeks (bi-weekly), deadline is always the Sunday night before the new cycle opens Monday. Submit anytime during the window; late submissions roll into the next cycle automatically. Featured picks and one random draw are announced at the end of each cycle. If you're not selected You stay in the pool, no need to resubmit the same pages. If you've revised since submitting, post an updated version and let me know in the comments which draft is current. A few rules One active submission per person per cycle. If you're picked and your pages get broken down, that read only happens once, I won't revisit or "redo" it once I know the project. Keep your own comments on other people's featured breakdowns constructive. This is a place to learn from someone else's notes, not to pile on. That's it. Format it right, post it in Submit Your Pages, wait for the cycle to close.
