The second annual Screenwriters Choice Awards winners will be announced on Jan. 7 at the Final Draft Awards ceremony on the Paramount Studios lot. Some standout nominees include Woody Allen's Blue Jasmine, Spike Jonze's Her and John Ridley's 12 Years a Slave. The awards are being sponsored by Final Draft, the makers of the prominent screenwriting software, and the winners will be chosen by previous winners.
