Any special way we should indicate the source? Henry

Put it on the script itself or just on submission form?
(Not that I have a clue about
what my source will be.)
Excellent theme, by the way.

I've finished my short script. It's been AGES since I've written one and I'm so rusty, I was thinking of submitting it to SS to get some feedback, is that still ongoing or frozen while the OWC is on? Now onto the OWC. I've started to look through the list of Fairy Tales and there's SO MANY! Plus, they all seem to originally be horror stories anyway! For once I'm spoiled for choice and at a loss because of this lol!

One thing I've learnt though is that one of the my favourite horror stories, The Man Who Drew Cats by Michael Marshall Smith, which won the British Fantasy Award...was just a rip off of the Boy who Drew Cats...an old Japanese fairy tale.
I really liked that one "The Boy who Drew Cats" when I went through the list but decided to leave it alone as I thought there would be many who liked this one too.
Too good! And lots of visuals.

Check out that story I mentioned. It's a really good version of it. There's still plenty to work with on that one...just have to find your own unique touch, as always.

In the submission form at
simplyscripts.com/owc . There is a place to indicate source material.

Same, I've looked through them all, and Googled others, but I've got nothing.
Looks like I'm out at the first hurdle.

You are not limited to the list. Is not Peter Cottontail a children's story?
Co'mon, Stevie!

Hope it's not too bad after the hurricane Pia?
I'm not on the coast, so it wasn't too bad. Got LOTS of trees though, so a BIG clean-up was needed. Was doing a little thinking while doing that. Got my story figured. Wrote most of it while having a cold one afterwards. Then, a friend told me I was losing my touch. That the old me would've finished by now...so, I did!

Thank God my daughter still has all her kids books. I found a nursery rhyme that, when taken out of context, is pretty damn creepy. Here we go again!

Hi, Don. Just to double, triple clarify, and only because the last OWC I apparently was out if the perimeters. If I took a story off the list you provided I am 100% within the guidlines?

Yes...you are good.
Best advice is not to ask questions. Interpret it your way. Take a story, poem, whatever and add your own twist.
That's what I'm doing, at least.
