I like the theme, should be interesting to read these in the end. Hopefully I can come up with something half-decent myself.

So, only one character with dialogue. Additional character(s) can speak, but must be OS. Do I have that right?

Also, is the other world actually called "Otherworld," or can we change the name of the other world to something else?

Only one character can have dialogue. In other words, only one character has a speaking role. The character can talk to whomever or whatever he/she/it wishes. However, those other characters cannot have dialogue in the script.

I have no idea what you are talking about...
one character only is allowed to have dialogue in the entire script? ??
Correct. Only one character can have dialogue... in the entire script - beginning, middle and end.
And, before anyone asks. TV, radio, robots that speak, hand puppets that speak would be considered a character.

I invited some
friends of mine (besides SS peepers) over, hopefully we can have a New Writer turnout like we never seen before.
As to the OWC itself...I got just the thing.
