There is no guarantee that Rick will find any to meet his criteria.   Just reminding you all about that.

By having a chance to work on it, with Rick's feedback included, will increase everyone's chance of producing a script that Rick wants.  Just reminding you of that too.  

Having gone through this exercise with The Dark - I'm not making the suggestion of adding this extra step lightly.

There are scripts that are popular when read, that do not make good films when it comes to production and vice-versa.  Having that extra step will give those unpopular gems a chance to grow on the readers.

Hi Austin!  

Okay people. Rick has sent me the challenge info. Sadly I can't partake due to the FK work, but you guys should prepare and sharpen your keyboards. The challenge is only two days away! An excellent chance to get your script produced by an award winning director/producer!

I promise to read all your entries!

I hope it's as restrictive as the last OWC in October, myself.  I want something challenging to write.   Something that will push me towards wanting to do it.  

I enjoyed writing for the October challenge and how the script came out for only a weeks time.

So who is in, or are you all waiting for the theme before you decide?

I'm not in because of time pressure - unless the theme inspires me to write something in which case I may give it a go.

...waiting for the theme?


Those who say they can't do it...seems they always hop in and submit anyway.

Those who say they will do it...ultimately they most often got nothin'.

Words on these type of threads do not mean a thing until the deadline has come and gone, Dec.

You just have to wait and see.

I'm one of the "Depends on the challenge" people.

I'd like to do them all, but if it's not enticing, I have plenty of scripts on the back burner than need my attention more.

I am just as bad as any of 'em...worse, perhaps.

In?  Out?  Your guess is as good as mine, quite frankly.

But my interest does pique whenever horror is in the mix -- for whatever that is worth -- and I will almost always bow out of comedy.

I'm in.
Bank on it.

Keep in mind the better you can provide challenge requirements based on resource capabilities, wide or narrow, the better I/we can zero in on what is feasible.

Oorah!
