Grey Line Entertainment is always interested in hearing from prospective writers. If you have a project you would like to submit, please follow
the guidelines listed below. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:
All initial queries should only be sent via e-mail to the
attention of Sara Miller. Please visit our contact page for additional e-mail
information.
Note: Do NOT send attachments. Any queries that include an attached file will be deleted unread. Further, in order to fairly respond to the large amount of queries we receive, we do not accept multiple submissions. (This covers submitting a list of completed projects in one query as well as under
separate cover for each.)
For Screenplay, Fiction, and Non-Fiction projects, please send a cover letter,
under one page in length, which includes a logline, brief synopsis for the project, any relevant publication and/or production history, and current contact information.
We respond to all queries as quickly as possible. However, due to the
high volume of submissions we receive, please allow between two to three weeks for a
response.
Should you have any questions regarding our submission process, please
do not call our offices. Concerns may be sent by e-mail and a representative
will respond as quickly as possible.
