I haven't heard of this happening in two or three hundred years.

It also talks about beer.

Cute picture of you and your boy Shelton...

Thought I'd throw in one of me and my baby girl. lol   She's 31...ouch!

I love words and the fact that when the page is blank...there's nothing there until words are formulated in my brain. Those thoughts...rushing through my viens and out my finger tips, find "life" on the page.  

When people and places come to life...that to me is exciting.

My finger nails should look nice while I type - Red works!

Sweet,  I've actually been working on a harem as of late.  Kills time in between those brief periods that I'm not working on scripts.

I just wanted to say thanks for coming up with this challenge. It was hard!

I have tried in the past to co-write with someone and it's tough since most people don't think alike, don't write alike and in our case don't even use compatible writing programs.

It was a good excersise to do. Often the produced screenplays are written by a team. if two people can find a way to write together, I do think it adds to the script since two minds know more than one.

I was surprised that more people didn't participate in this, really.  It was harder than the usual challenges, which I thought would be a draw.

At the same time, it'll be easier for everyone (especially Don) to go through seven scripts.  Didn't the last one have about forty entries in it?

Sounds like a really cool challenge, too bad I only joined this forum last week! I'll surely participate in the next one!


I will return reads as fast as possible!

My scripts:

I had a lot of fun this time around. I'd like to thank both of my partners. You guys are great. Hopefully we'll write another script together. Also thank you Phil, for getting this whole thing together.

I'm not interested in coming up with a crazy twist or anything like that. I like my stories Simple. Straightforward. A to B. No C.

You enjoyed it Zack?  That's funny because James and Nixon didn't stop pm'ing me, complaining about having to work with you and how much of a lazy primadonna you were.
