I would likely do an OWC. Definitely not a 7WC. |

IMHO, shorts are a lot of fun and I LOVE them. I would like a OWC...however, as a writer, features are a lot more useful and worth your time. Just my $0.02.  |

But how many people actually work on their 7WC scripts afterwards, making them more salable? I think the OWCs are fun excercises that can be forgotten about later. Phil |

Missed the last one. I'd like to give it another crack.
For the record, what's a 7WC? I'm guessing from the comments that it's the first few pages of a possible feature? Anyways, I'm hoping for another chance. |

From my understanding, it's just like the OWC. You develop and write an entire feature in seven weeks, based around a given theme. And I could definitely use some motivation to finish a feature. |

The 7WC is a great exercise and has produced some terrific scripts so naturally I did not partake in it haha. |

I’m kind of excited and want to get working on something.
How does the OWC usually get moving? |

The OWC will be announced a few days in advance, and then the theme/genre/guidelines will be posted usually on a Friday and you'll have one week to write a short script between usually 10-12 pages. Then the scripts will be posted with the authors anonymous for a week (though I've always liked the idea of skipping that part) and you read a few to get involved and vote on which you liked the best. |

NO!!!! You read them all, or at least attempt to read them all. How in the world could anyone vote for their favorite if they only read a few? Make the commitment to read every script if you enter. It's really only fair. |
