Quoted from Zack
How different is it? Some of my stuff is still theere, right?(afterall, we spent a shit load of time writing that thing)

~Zack~


Zack,

A little advice since you are/were involved in a massive collaborative effort.

Prepare to see some of your "children" killed.  It's just the nature of the beast.

Is this script the one that starts like;

EXT. SHORELINE - NIGHT

Waves crash on a darkened grass shoreline. A harsh light scans overhead.
Heavy breathes sound in the darkness.

A dark figure passes quickly beneath the heavy light. The light tries to follow, but it loses the figure.

Footsteps rustle in the brushes. A figure calls in the water.

Yes that's the script.

Mike, I'm aware that alot of my stuff might not make the cut. But I'd like to see something of mine not be thrown away.

Yeah, hey alot of my stuff is changed, too so really don't feel too bad. Remember when I first contacted you about drafting a collaberation? We basically rewrote that entire script from scratch.

And either way, the people on board are very capable writers and I fully trust the product they'll turn out.

J Gomez, I'll see what I can send you. Right now Sandra is doing the first rewrite, then I'm sending it to James. And after James, I'll forward you a draft.

Also, If he's not too busy, I'd love to get Sean onboard. Zombies is his forte and I'd really want him to contribute to a rewrite.  Well, at least I have my fingers crossed.

I'm sure you'll be fine in that regard.I've been involved in a collaborative rewrite process for about a year and a half now.  Not as much of a collaborative effort now as it was, but even when we started over from scratch some of my stuff has always made it into the newer drafts.

Just how many writers are you getting in on this thing?

I'd hate to see some of my work rewritten over and over like that...

Especially before I'd sold it. But it does make for an interesting experiment.

If it weren't for Chris and Zack, this wouldn't be emerging out of those BLACK WATERS.

After Sandra E. uncontrollably embroils innocent writers into a confusing drama involving Choronzon, the demon of chaos, James is left swimming inside the torrential sea of intemperate dreams.

Who will save this poor group of Abramelian story weavers?  Will Chris help Cole to save our souls?

Stay tuned.

The story has taken a turn for the bizarre and I can't wait to see where James takes the story.

Again, I'm glad I held off on part two since part one has taken such a dramatic turn.

Is he contributing to this work?  I think he deserves a better answer than:

Which really is not in keeping with the collaborative spirit of your project.

Also, if you are no longer seeking additional cowriters -- and you should stop, as it seems you have plenty now -- I would suggest giving this thread a proper title -- that is, the actual working title -- and moving this over to the WIP thread for updates.



Hey, it's my tiny, little IMDb!

Alright. Sorry Dslah about that. I posted an early draft on the IMDb board and got a lot of "someone will rip this off" post there.

Also, the opening they cited would of only been known if he was A. Zack or Sandra, or if B. He read my post on IMDb and came over here.  

If Dslah is a writer interested, then I am sorry about that.

Bert is right. I'm going to lock this thread since I've got the writers I want to be onboard. If anyone is interested drop me a pm. I'm moving this into a WIP, now.
