Hi guys. Sorry to interrupt your reading of 50 odd OWC scripts, but just wanted to throw this out there.

I wrote my first horror feature back in May, a zombie western called Fort Hell. It ce out ok to me but was plagued with formatting probs due to writing it on an Ipad app. Also became a slog to me writing it as time went on. A couple of people read it then it drifted off, lol.

Anyways, I'm offering it to be rewritten! As long as you keep the main chars and basic plot - and its all there ready now, just needs some padding out. Feel free to enhance the action and violence, as long as you maintain the decapitation of the 'Jeff Bush' char, lol!

I know I should really do it myself but I wanna get this Marilyn Monroe feature done and its dragging on a bit.

Anyone keen - I would prefer a reg if possible, so there's no 'issues' later. Plus I know where most of you live so makes it easier for my hitmen to come calling if some dodgy business occurs  ;D

Email or PM is fine and we can chat!

Cheers stevie

Um, this isn't quite what I was hoping for, lol!  ;D


What's the title, Silver? Pus Stop?  Some Like It Rot? How To Decapitate A Turned Millionaire?   Lol

Fort Hell 2:  Selhurst Park Nightmare. lol

Stevie, this is brave, handing over your script for someone else to re-write.  I wonder why you just don't wait and do it yourself?  I wrote a script about 2 years ago and it's been sitting on my laptop waiting for a re-write and will remain there until I get round to it.

Saying that, I've been struggling to finish a feature I started 5 years ago and have often thought of asking for help but so far I'm still hanging on the optimistic view of finishing it myself.

Yeah, all good points, alffy. If no one takes up my offer I will prolly do it, when I've finished my current project. I have always been loathe to re-write any of my work, Headlong is the only one I've ever done but that was more of a different version than a rewrite. All my other work have never been touched again, including any OWC ones, but that because they are just written for those events.

I was thinking that offering to someone who was having trouble writing a whole feature themselves then having a crack at rewriting a script that is all there ripe for it would be easier.

Does that make sense? Lol.
