I think the first ten pages of a feature was run as a regular OWC. We never had to turn in the feature. It was up to each writer to finish. I still have mine.

You guys are correct. We have had a 3WC once and had a 2WC back before I was even on the boards. But, rest assured, it is coming.

Quoted from Grandma Bear
I'm afraid to spell it out. Don't want to cause Don extra stress or anything. All I'm going to say is, it's January.....  


Ah, ok - I didn't participate, so missed out on the correct story of it.

So, the two-week thing was done before... Hmm, that puts me in a detective mood!

It's actually a One Week Challenge, but it involves time travel so you have two weeks to work on it.


Feature-length scripts:
Who Wants to Be a Princess? (Family)
Glass House (Horror anthology)

TV pilots:
"Kord" (Fantasy)
"Mal Suerte" (Superhero)

Additional scripts are listed here.

I hope it's something that will spark a feature. I need to get thru about three this year

I finished one from the 7WC before... and I think I finished one other one we started here.

Anyway ... what time of the month are we doing this thing? Even though it's two weeks... I know mine will be a last minute three hour climb. I am bad about doing that yall.

If you're going to try and last minute this contest, Dena, I'm going to wish you luck because you're going to need it.

What? What? Where? How? What now?

Where are the clues? What’s the challenge?

I’m keen for a thing to flush my brain of all the booze and mince pies. Any meta-clues appreciated!

Don't worry, it'll all become clear soon enough and everything about the challenge will be announced in due time.

This pre-announcement is just the building of suspense and dangling the bait part.  
'flush my brain of booze and mince pies' - good description.

When it starts? Or when we find out when it starts?

Only the shadow knows.

Tomorrow. Here in the UK, the date written like that would be the 1st December. We'd write, 12/01/18.

So I have two weeks to come up with something that should have taken me a day to write, but I screw around until I see the timer at the top of the page on day 13 and come up with some mindless drivel at the last minute?  Count me in!
