Quoted from DanC
Ashley, i felt the same way as you do.  However, consider the fact that for people like us (that is on the outside trying to get in ) shorts give you a way to build a name for yourself.  A friend of mine won an award on a short and was asked to write a feature based on a novel and it sold.  She never would have gotten that chance if not for the short.  

Also there are benefits to these exercises of the mind.

Hope you enter
Dan


Hey, I have nothing against those who write shorts exclusively, but I also believe you can still make a name for yourself in other ways.

Not being naive. I'm just saying.

I would write a short but I really don't want to. No shade.

It's like when you're acting and you do a whole bunch of community theatre and extra work, hoping someone will notice your talent...that theory can only take you so far...the same goes for shorts. There nice calling cards but you can't seriously spend all your time doing them and not focus on what you really want to do with your writing.

Quoted from Female Gaze
Is regular submission going to be shut down during this again? I just want to know if I should get ahead of this or behind. Seeing as I know all attention will be on this for the next few weeks.


Ashlie,

Yes, regular submissions will be shut down tomorrow around noon eastern standard time.  I do this so the OWC scripts get the full attention of the discussion board, yet those who submit work the week before also get as full attention as possible.

With this announcement, I would ask that anybody who's willing to participate in this OWC, please send me a PM, acknowledging that you're RSVPing, before the challenge is revealed on Friday, January 20th.


So - it is announced tomorrow - not today?

Who knows? It used to be around this time, Oz time...

Either way, I have my knife sharpened and ready to go.
