Congrats to the winners! And, everyone else who entered.

This was a huge surprise for me! Seriously. By the comments, I figured mine would land in the middle somewhere.

I liked this OWC, so thank you Sean. It was a little smaller in size and I personally prefer that. Maybe that's why the quality was higher too? It wasn't promoted outside of the boards, as far as I know. It's fine to get new writers over here, but a bit annoying when they just drop a script off and never read or never intend to be part of the community. It reminded me a little bit of "the good old days" as far as the OWCs go.

Good job running it all Sean. Great theme and challenge.

Now it looks like a have a couple more to read.  

Dames and Games... It's Only Words

It's always great to write 2 scripts on 2 different ends of the spectrum

One was a  poignant story about a beautiful relationship which sadly came to an end... the other was about scrabble and had no dialogue.

Seriously though I was challenged within a challenge by the missus to write a short with no dialogue and she literally played scrabble in front of me for inspiration. I know it needs chopped down a lot... but easily filmed.

Dames and games wrote  between 11:00 - 2 in the morn (Friday) and it shows
I just needed to get a comedy in just because...

The story itself, the hell if I know. Trump was on the news at the time of writing

Congrats to all who entered and those who won.

Big thanks to Sean and Don.

Congrats to the Writers Choice top 2!! And to everyone who entered! Very cool OWC.

Congrats to the winners and runner up. As a NKOTB I gained so much, not just from the excellent analysis of my entry, the feedback from all entries. I did read them all and commented on most I think.

In the past week or two I have written a few more shorts and this OWC has probably aided my development more than ever before in terms of format and style.

Great work everyone involved, and I want to especially thank everyone who read mine, and also those who were kind enough to comment.

Cheers

Chris

Thanks all:

Going in for surgery tomorrow morning at 7:00 am (nothing major) - but will be down for a bit and wanted to get my thanks into SS for running the contest and all who participated.

Dave, great job! Loved it.

And, thanks to Blondie. This one definitely inspired some unique scripts.

Great OWC Sean/Don, all your time and effort is truly appreciated! As well, an awesome job by Dave, Tim, Bill, Pia!

Overall, there was quite a few scripts I really liked in this batch... oodles of clever, funny, surreal, what-have-you. It made for a potpourri of interesting and strange.

Ah yes, Johnny... it would appear you got into the modelling glue prior to this challenge as well, lol, but... that's what makes writing these OWC's all the rage; just losing control and running with whatever comes to mind...

Congrats to all the winners!! And to all who wrote as I think the quality this go around was top notch! Oh and thank you to Sean for running this one and Don for having it as well! Always a lot of fun!!

Thank you, Johnny. I had a lot of fun writing KYD.

Thanks to Don and Sean for running this.

I haven't been on this site in a long time and this script was the first I've written in about four years, so was just hoping to shake off some rust. The fact it was so well received was equally encouraging and surprising.

Congrats also to David, Pia and Bill for their efforts and to everyone else who took part.

Tim.

Congratulations to the winners and well done to everyone who took part. I missed this OWC more than I thought I would. No matter how busy I am, I need to take part in the next one!

thanks Don for putting this on, its been a ride as ever.

well done Tim and Dave - sound scripts.

I'm rather pleased with that since it was a pile of of poo on Thursday night, a case of a last minute rescue. they don't all work out that way !!

cheers

all

Quoted from Pale Yellow I had a lot of fun writing KYD.

It is a very well written story. Nice work. Seems like a completely different writer from the previous two efforts (that I've read).

Well done, Dave (don't know the other guy), Role of the Dice is a good one and should get picked up.

Congrats to all who entered.  It's very hard to come up with a solid story in a short deadline.  

Congrats to the "winners" of the OWC.  I enjoyed a lot of the stories.

Hey, if anyone would like an in-depth review, feel free to ask.  When I had to review all of them, I didn't really have a chance to write a 5 page review.

As always, if anyone wants to help me with mine, I'm always up for advice.  

I was glad to be a part of this OWC.  Glad to be back.  I just got the hands-free software, so, I'm really happy!!

Here's hoping for a good year for all of us!!

Dan

Congrats to the winners.

...and a big thanks to all those who have read my submission, It did a lot better than what I thought and as always I got some fantastic comments on it.
