The CineStory Foundation's residency program is designed for screenwriters and television writers seeking uninterrupted time to write and a community of peers. Unlike the organization's retreats, which emphasize mentorship and education, this residency prioritizes generative writing and communal support. The program will take place over eight days in the mountains of Idyllwild, California, from June 18 to 25, 2027, and offers up to 25 spots. Residents are provided with private bedrooms and baths, three meals per day, and shared spaces for writing, small-group meetings, and socializing. The daily structure includes dedicated writing time, generative exercises, story-breaking sessions, and informal social interaction. The residency is explicitly open to both screenwriters and TV writers, and the focus is on producing new work away from the distractions of daily life. The application has two deadlines: an early deadline on October 30, 2026, with a $30 fee, and a regular deadline on March 19, 2027, with a $50 fee. The foundation does not specify a prize or location beyond the Idyllwild setting. This opportunity is best suited to writers who value a disciplined, community-oriented environment for creative development.
