Who Wrote What, Writer's Choice and 'final' words on the Feb OWC.The February 2011 One Week Challenge now draws to a close with the 'reveal' of Who Wrote What and the "Writer's Choice" script..
But first a few words. Again, thanks everyone who entered. The question on everyone's mind is "Which script did Rick pick, if any?" I don't know. I'm sure Rick is still reading through them and it could be several months before there is announcement, if any. Rick is under no obligation to produce any of the scripts. This has been stated at the beginning of the OWC. If there was/is any misunderstanding in that regard, the fault is entirely my own.
PseudonymsThanks to Daren J Seeley for the idea for the pseudonyms used. If you missed it, the pseudonym theme was Executioneers (mostly European). Except for Darren, Kevin, Sandra and Janet (who selected her/his own pseudonym), the names were assigned randomly. Apologies if I've offended anyone's 'gender sensibilities'. It was not intentional.
Writer's ChoiceThe Writer's Choice selection is at the bottom of this thread. Each writer was asked, "Of the scripts you have read, which one did you enjoy the most". It was left up to the writer's to determine his/her own criteria.
Thanks to Pia for spearheading this challenge This challenge would not have happened if it wasn't for Pia
