Basically, Matthew, don't leave your score in the post, don't specify which entry is yours and do your best to keep the criticism to a level of something that the writer could use to actually improve the script. That's your basic etiquette for the OWC. |

What about an OWC that is limited to a single location and just one character. Genre: Action. That would be challenging.  Zack |

I hope it's that because I have an idea for that now - In fact, even without the OWC I might write it lol I have challenged myself to write 12 shorts this year after all |

Two steps to writing a good screenplay:
1) Write a bad one
2) Fix it |

Action with one character? What about a RomCom with only one character? |

Narcissist. Way too easy, Frank. They call it a challenge for a reason. =) |

A one man romance and he thinks he's the funniest guy in the world. It's called 'Jeff'. Sorry, man, I couldn't help it. |

BTW - Is that a picture of Glenn Close with the three hearts? I'm guessing a love triangle gone bad. |

It has to be a love triangle challenge but the twist is that two of three in the triangle are sex robots. |
| Some of my scripts:
Bounty (TV Pilot) -- Top 1% of discoverable screenplays on Coverfly
I'll Be Seeing You (short) - OWC winner
The Gambler (short) - OWC winner
Skip (short) - filmed
Country Road 12 (short) - filmed
The Family Man (short) - filmed
The Journeyers (feature) - optioned

Interest: Piqued.
Would also prefer a definitive genre to an open one. |
