The International Screenwriters' Association (or simply The ISA) is a screenwriting resource and community founded by filmmaker Craig James Pietrowiak.[1][2] The organization was founded in 2008 with the mission to provide resources to emerging screenwriters. There have been over 80,000 members since its launch.[3]
