Murphy,
Thanks for sending yours over to me. Just read it.
I won't give anything away but WOW......
Off the charts my friend. Really.....Well Done!!!!
That's right up my alley, style wise.
Shawn......><
P.S I now see what you mean about the RAT. My apoligies.
Thanks Shawn, but I don't think my script is very good, it is a bit of a piss take, am a bit worried about taking the piss while everyone in working hard to do something good. But thats what I wanted to do, and as this is my first script for God knows how long (18 months?) It was just good to write something again. And has actually helped me get my writing head on so I can get a feature started at last.
I liked yours, a lot. I have sent you an email, It was a clever idea.
Mine will be submitted tomorrow for better or worse... I've got a few people wanting to read it, but I'd rather it be a surprise and let them wait it out. I've got some well placed jabs at the restrictions in there, one or two that might be pushing the grounds of it being disqualified for breaking the rules. But we'll see. I've got a wealth of traditional horror in here, though, too. I think the ending scenes would play out well on film.
All 3 of my characters, by the way, were used as protagonist. How's that for challenging?
Well, back to working on the damn story. Figure I'll finish it tonight, not even bother glossing it up but I'll be sure there's no errors worth noting then get back to Christmas Story.

I agree that Sunday is good for surprises. I think all of my scenes would play well on film. The last one isn't really needed on paper, but given my subject and the horror tale I chose, folks would Hunt me down with pitchforks and a slingshot if I didn't!
Nobody will read me yet anyway. Not unless they are drunk and smokin' 'shrooms.
Jeff, I read the OWC script you sent me. While I thought it was clever, I don't think that Don is going to appreciate a story taking place in an abandoned house of cards. Your use of a Jack, a Queen and a King (in a wheelchair) was unique but it is completely against the spirit of the OWC.
There was me, George Orwell, Shakespeare and Stephen King in a gay bar last night. e didn't talk about writing or anything like that. Although Bill said just after he get the drinks in that he'll be entering the OWC. He's only written five pages so far.
Place was full of women, they were pushing and shoving and touching me. It was great, I'm going back next week.
Better music than the straight bar next door. That's full of pseudo macho morons who only use pens to clean their ears with. Beer in there is rubbish too.
