I've never done a 7 WC before, is it fun?

The previous 6WC and 7WC isn't an official "challenge" run by Don. It started with some of us just needing a push to write and complete a feature. We agreed on a theme and then we just did it. They are usually pretty rough first drafts posted here, but that is of course to be expected in such a short time. I do think however that they all have been good enough that with rewrites after the reviews have all turned out good in the end.

I wrote a horror slasher for the Christmas themed one. It was sort of a protest by me only because I didn't want to do a Christmas story. That one is currently being rewritten. The people that produced the web series Seriously Wounded (soon to be released) are waiting for that script. We'll see what happens. The one I did for the thriller 7WC was rewritten by a friend of mine and it was requested by a director in S. Africa. He didn't like it, but you never know what can happen.

Sounds fun to me, I'm just starting my very first full length Screenplay. But would be willing to do something like this as well, never to many screenplays going on right? :]

After the end of the year, I won't have anything really pressing, so another OWC or a 7WC would be a good way to jump right back in

I wouldn't mind joining the 7owc. I have to redeem myself from not finishing the last one. And, at least I know it's going to not look so good in the first draft.


Just Murdered by Sean Elwood (Zombie Sean) and Gabriel Moronta (Mr. Ripley) - (Dark Comedy, Horror) All is fair in love and war. A hopeless romantic gay man resorts to bloodshed to win the coveted position of Bridesmaid. 99 pages.

Okay! Cool! Let's see if there are any more people interested. I think there might be a regular OWC in January though. Most people might be too busy before Christmas?

I personally find the 7WC very helpful as I seem to do better when under the gun than left on my own.

Ditto! I'm pretty sure the only reason I'm making this last push before the 31st is because I've already extended this deadline once...

If you've started your first feature, I wouldn't recommend doing a 7WC.  There's a lot of pressure involved in it.  Just work on your own at a leisurely pace.

Well I would be willing to do both actually, pressure is good to IMO. I'll continue with the feature and do a 7 WC. I dont mind losing more hair.
