From Seminfinalist to Signed Writer | Andy Compton

Back in 2021, Andy Compton placed as a semifinalist in the Nicholl Screenwriting Fellowship... twice. After that, Roadmap helped him get signed to Epicenter, where he now has several projects in development, including being attached to direct his drama script, BELLYACHE. In this episode, we reminisce with Andy about the days of Screenwriting Twitter, chat about his journey after getting signed, and about independent filmmaking vs. writing for the market.
