Who wants to earn ![Merit Badge in Screenwriting
[Click For More Info]
Congratulations on your new merit badge: "Screenwriting"! Thank you for commissioning a badge for the community and supporting us with your inspirations, participation and activities for our members. We appreciate it! -SMs](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Screenwriting.gif)  this fancy new screenwriting Merit Badge? I will award it to the first person who replies to this forum post with the correct answer to the following question:When it comes to writing credits, the Writers Guild of America (WGA) - the guild/union for professional screenwriters - makes a distinction between the use of the word "and" and the ampersand symbol ("&") when listing multiple writers who work on a project. For example, a writing credit that reads: Written by Joe Screenwriter & Jane Screenwriter means something entirely different than: Written by Joe Screenwriter and Jane Screenwriter What is the difference between the two credits? What does "and" signify and what does "&" signify? This answer shouldn't be too hard to find with a little nosing around the internet. If you wanted to be really awesome, you could provide a link to the webpage or site where you found the information so that others could learn more about this aspect of screenwriting credit as well!  Good luck! Jeff   Please check out my community items: "Unofficial Erotica Newsletter Group"  "The Dark Society" "Blogocentric Formulations" |
