So I'm about to submit my draft and noticed that the contest calls for you NOT to put your real name on the submission. I was under the impression that everyone was not hiding their entry based on the fact that everyone has been sharing their ideas. I'm fine with whatever is decided, but I guess I want to make sure I'm doing it right, as this is the first one I've entered and I'm traveling all day tomorrow.
What say you, Phil? Real name on it or not?

Some of my scripts:
Bounty (TV Pilot) -- Top 1% of discoverable screenplays on Coverfly I'll Be Seeing You (short) - OWC winner The Gambler (short) - OWC winner Skip (short) - filmed Country Road 12 (short) - filmed The Family Man (short) - filmed The Journeyers (feature) - optioned
My thriller idea is coming together little by little (as I distract myself from three novels I should really work on). I have a basic plot, but no MacGuffin. My outline still says "MacGuffin (I'll think of this later)". Fortunately, I still don't really need to know what it is to write 11 pages.
Submitted! And may God have mercy on anyone who actually reads this script (and the logline quickly prepared so I could submit this)!
Now, as punishment, I must get in a car and drive for 14 hours. With kids.

Noticing some peeps beating themselves up already, before their script is even seen.
Just remember that you entered the OWC and that in itself is an accomplishment. Nothing that you wrote was set in stone, so make the best of your feedback and rewrite if needed.
Following Mark, this contest is to help you write and finish a screenplay. Be lucky that it's a feature. IMO, it has more value than a short. That's just me (since I suck writing shorts...lol).
Anyway I digress, back to the matter at hand. Like Mark says, you can rewrite it afterwards once you get a satisfactory number of notes from peeps on here. Once it's all done, you'll have a feature under your belt that can be found and made into a movie (it happened to Pia).
Everyone's good in my book. Reaper gets a bit more for that Danielle Harris pic. . lol.
