She really did.

I hope all goes well with Thistles, great screenplay.  I wonder though if the actress would be comfortable with the role, I bet she would be though, Sazha is an amazing introvert character, and her because the role would be hard for any actress.  Good luck though!

Well, they do say great minds think alike, Mark.  Lol. I thought it was a great device as well, so yeah, I also find it cool we both did that.

Dude,
How proud you must feel!  Never got a chance to read the script, but the short film was devastating and powerful in its simplicity.  I started to watch again and cringed because it's almost like watching that car crash on the road.  Hard to look away.
I've always felt, personally, that death can be beautiful and heartbreaking.  This film -- and I'm sure the script, as well -- was both.
Congrats!
Regards,
Steve

Hey Steve!

Thanks for having a look!

Welcome to Simplyscripts.  I don't think I've ever ran into you before.  You got anything posted?  If so, let me know.

Anyway, thank you very much for the wonderful compliments.  I'm glad you liked it, and was able to find the beauty beyond the tragedy.

Hope to be reading yours soon.

- Mark

I've read some of your work Mark and I think you're an undeniable talent. I haven't read God's Empty Acre, but I did watch the film (Girls) and was impressed. I can definitely tell you wrote it, as it fits the subject matter/genre that I'm used to seeing you write (only a few shorts I've read though).

The lead actress was especially impressive.

Looking forward to seeing more of your work on screen!

Hey Michael.

Thanks for checking it out.  I'm glad you liked it.  I loved Makayla in the part.  She nailed it.

It should be very soon, if everything works out to plan.  Actually, I think I've told you before, I can't wait to watch 'Suicide Theory'.  It looks promising.  I wish I had seen it years ago when it was on the site.

Hey Everbody.

I'm a little late on the announcement, but I just wanted to say 'Girl(s)' won Best Drama Film at the 2013 World Independent Film Expo.

It was also nominated as Best Film, but fell short to 'Consignment'.

I've been really busy since I've been back to work and I've got contracted out to write a couple small features for a company, but I hope to find some time in the coming weeks to get back and do more reading on the site.

I hope everybody's doing good and I hope to be talking to you soon.

- Mark

Thanks, Ghostie and Pia and Curt!

I'm still excited to checkout 'Finders Keepers' and 'Blackout', by the way.
