Will you be taking advantage of this Final Draft 9 sale? Have you migrated away from Final Draft to another screenwriting app, or do you use another screenwriting app and don't see the advantage to switching to Final Draft? Share your thoughts with us in the comments.The biggest name in screenwriting software is undoubtedly Final Draft.

I see these Final Draft sales mainly targeted at existing users who have yet to upgrade to the latest version. Of course, several free and less expensive screenwriting apps now exist. If you're thinking, "Wasn't Final Draft 9 just on sale back in January?" you're right, it was! Every few months, Final Draft goes on sale, so hopefully we're all trained at this point never to pay full price if we're in the market to purchase Final Draft. Check out the details below and find links to take advantage of the current sale at The Writers Store.

If you miss it, you'll just have to wait until Final Draft 9 is on sale again a few months later.

If you are looking to upgrade to Final Draft 9 or purchase the full version, you can save 20% on upgrades, 30% on the academic version, and 32% on the full version if you buy from The Writers Store.
