Here is the timetable for the October, 2008 One Week Challenge.
October 10, 2008: The Topic is Release into the wild.
October 17, 2008: A 13 Page Script is due. (properly formatted) 11:59 pm edt on Friday 10/17
October 24, 2008: Who wrote what revealed.
October 31, 2008: Release of the
iScript of the selected script.
This isn't a contest. This is a writing exercise to see if you can knock out a good, 12 page script on the topic and genre selected. It isn't a contest. There are no winners. (Well, if you take the challenge, you are, in effect, a winner). One script is selected through a mysterious process to be audio performed.

But you never know. There could be a dark horse genre and theme selector this time around. It could be someone you'd never think of. Someone who may have already posted in this thread.

This year's genre is going to be mockumentary. You can thank Pia for this idea. Don has already approved. Mockumentary.

Considering we had horror for last year's October OWC, I doubt this one will be horror again. But, can we try and pick a theme that'll get us Simply Scripters into the spirit of Halloween?

P.S> I guess even if the theme is Halloween-less, I can still connect it to Halloween. Boy do I love Halloween. Halloween....
Halloween.

Actually, the genre wasn't horror last year... though people's reaction to it was. It was the pumpkin carving one (I think the theme was drama). That caused a shit storm of biblical proportions.
